And The Tide Turns

And the tide turned from one moment to the next,
Life was changing so fast and so new,
Two of her old friends were no longer in her life,
One made her sad the other did not affect her as much,
One was one of her dearest guy friends that meant
Everything to her that she would have done anything for,
Someone that she felt she could talk about anything
Or nothing at all,
About dreams, life, happiness, and all the betweens,
But then he and the other decided to hate
Who I decided to marry and not tell me
And hide what they were thinking and feeling,
And so the tide turned.
And the tide turns from innocence to life of pain and hurt,
The moments of wanting to give anything
And the talking of anything or nothing was gone
And the heartache was living deep in her heart
And the moments that she normally would share
A happy holiday wish or a hope or dream
Did not exist anymore,
There would be no more phone calls on holidays
Or well wishes and hoping that every year would be better
Than it was before and to be grateful for what they had before,
Life was different now the tide had turned.
And the tide turns
From one point of her life to the next,
It was interesting how people in her past were now a part of her life,
And those she thought that would always be there for her
Were now no longer,
Life was always interesting and didn’t always make sense
And she knew she would miss him
Every single moment of her life,
Because she loved him with her whole heart once,
And although yes the feeling would be a little
Less and less as time went on,
But she knew deep in her heart that
No matter how much the tide would turn
That she would still love him
That she would still miss him,
That life will never be the same
But she knew that there was no way to go back
No way to go back to where it was before,
Even if she wanted to
Even if he wanted to try,
The tide had turned,
And she had to turn with it.
