Happily ever after,
You and me, would be, they had said.
A hand to hold,
Steps, side by side,
Partners for the road ahead.
I had your back,
And you had mine.
Our story - a fantasy,
Less magical,
More reality,
Perhaps that was a sign.
I didn’t notice,
As our dreams took flight.
You wandered a different path,
And though I stayed behind,
Something felt innately right.
They didn’t tell us,
Real forever’s come with only so much rhyme.
Certainty becomes distant,
Love, a fragment of the mind.
Ours was no fairy tale,
They begin with 'Once upon a time'.
