Where The Rip Began

I've often wondered where we went wrong

What led to the steps that we took

I try to look back to see the mistakes

But it hurts too much when I look

Who was at fault, who do we blame?

Was it you or something I did?

Did both of us know something was wrong

And was it simply something we hid?

The harder we tried, the more my heart tore

I could feel it down deep in my chest

You always tried to cover your pain

And I knew you were trying your best

Why does this happen to people like us?

For you were the love of my life

We even talked about starting a family

Becoming a husband and wife

I can't tell you why things turn out this way

I don't think that anyone can

We could have mended the holes in our hearts

If we knew where the rip had began

Gut wrenching incomprehension to loss of love and a future wished for. Where did we go wrong? - And not being able to pinpoint it is even worse. The chinese water torture of unattributed regret.

Wow, I can relate....so sad, living love is not easy.
'if we knew where the rip had began'...love that line.
