time apart

If I said that I love you
and you did not hear it
the first time you told me
that we could not be together
the stones were put in motion
that would bury us here today
every time you took another lover
another stone was laid between us
mortared with the memories made
in our stolen moments as friends
behind the wall my love survived
you cannot let yourself believe me
and I cannot tell you how I feel
there is too much weakness
in me, in artificial separation
but not in you, you abide all
strong because you must be
but the time alone weakens us
behind the pain that you feel
for every day we are apart
it cuts me deeper than you
because I have my pain
and also I have yours
now and forever
