Moving Forward

The day I met you was a day unforetold
It had led me to the start
of a future unknown

We began to fabricate
The truth was far from overt
In our paths of self-destruction
We caused each other hurt

I had not seen it coming
A path far from tender hearts
Our lives intersected
Each deception played a prominent part

Here we are now
In a shadow of glory
We had not professed
To forget the whole story

Overcoming the past
Is the hardest thing too
Never in my mind will I forget
These disastrous events that led me to you.
