The final chapter

After years with each other, couples tend to forget
What brought them together and their chain of events
By struggling to make it and create a great life
They forget the sheer magic, that made man and wife
For him it's a career and the need to provide
That will make him forget, the real reason he's trying
But she will remember, when he looked in her eyes
And that first time he stayed and chose her...not the guys
Again...it's her that'll remember, when one kiss wasn't enough
So he kissed her some more and they began falling in love
She will definitely remember, when their relationship became
So much more than a childish, Parker Brothers board game
It's moments like those, that are tattooed on her heart
Carefully placed beside scars, from their 20 year bout
The love that once made, those hearts beat as one
Has slowly unwound and made them feel numb
As quick as she remembers, will be as fast as he forgets
How deeply they connected, that first moment they met
To let go of the beginning, remains a struggle each day
And her brain fails to process, how its ending this way
She will seem like she's fine, with no emotions to show
while her heart falls to pieces and her mind let's him go....

Now...."they will live happily ever after".....Separately!!!
