And So It Goes

And So It Goes

And so it goes,
you live in your world,
I live in mine.

	And without the grace of God
	we may never be close again,
	never be “together” again.

			After many more weeks I may be able
			to sleep and dream once more
			without seeing your faces.

				For time is healing this hurt
				slowly, so slowly
				that it may take a lifetime.

			A lifetime I’d rather spend
			having special people like you
			to hold, to love.

	But we’re seldom given what we want,
	you and I,
	nevertheless, I will always try to be your friend.

No matter what it costs me
my caring will continue.
And so it goes…
