No Going Back
by Joan SerratelliWe cannot go back
to the way we were
too much has happened
and our love's
just not that strong
We've tried
and we've failed
There's no going back
it's too late for that
After all we've been through
our love has not weathered
the storm
there's no going back
it's over
that's all
We canot go back
to the way things were
We've both changed
for the worse
we have to face it
it's over
and
that's all 04/10/2009 Posted on 04/10/2009
