My Life And Your Love Is A Song

The silence between us is killing me. As hard as I fight to keep this love alive, we continue to drift apart. I can’t accept the fact that you’re gone … I just can’t. So here I sit, reflecting on the love that was. In the process, I’m retracing my steps, hoping they will one day lead me back to you.

So if you’re out there listening, take this journey with me. Let’s rediscover where we’ve been, and what we’ll forever mean to each other.

This is our story…

Phase One: Love Pursued

What Are We Gonna Do

The Fly Lyrics:
I know we may be rushing
There’s no time to think it through
Cuz when love overcomes your heart
There’s nothing you can do

The Fly Reflection:
From the start, I knew you were the one. The odds may have been stacked against us, but the heart doesn’t lie … at least mine didn’t. I kept hearing that I wasn’t your type, but you never paid any attention to that kind of talk. Like me, you followed your heart, and it led you to true love … it led you to me.

So Special

The Fly Lyrics:
Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall
These four seasons tell it all
Each has a special way
Of saying my love is here to stay
How else can I explain
Than to start with April’s rain
Spring is when I first knew
That I fell in love with you

The Fly Reflection:
I love you. Those words three words defined my existence from the moment I laid eyes on you. No, scratch that. They have unknowingly rested at my core since life began for me. Your love has always felt so familiar—almost as if our souls were once connected, only to be reunited by this chance encounter. That’s how special your love … no, our love is to me.

Phase Three: Love Lost

All Alone

The Fly Lyrics:
If I pray to myself
Maybe God above will hear me
And if it is in His will
Then He’ll send you right back to me
I’ll hold my feelings inside so that you won’t see me cry
I hope it’s all in my mind cause I’m scared.

The Fly Reflection:
I never imagined life without you. And I certainly never thought the day would come when you would deem my love insufficient. All I can hope is that it’s just a phase, and that our best moments are still ahead of us. I initially viewed this as “love lost.” But as I write these words, my heart still wants to believe that we’ll live to see another day together.

So consider our love merely deferred … I haven’t given up on us yet.

Today’s Fly Discussion: Isn’t it amazing how the evolution of a relationship can be articulated through song? That still amazes me.

Here’s my question for you.

Have you ever been left in a holding pattern, where you refused to believe that the relationship had ended? Tell me what happened, and how it was resolved.

  • Bmore Baybee

    It’s been a while since I commented, but that was beautiful. **Sigh** I’ve never knew a man who always knew what to say and it didn’t sound like bullshit. FG everything you write seems like you mean it. It gives me hope that there is a man that will be like that for me.

    I seriously (heart) you!!!

  • Tubbs

    Good piece FG. You can never go wrong with Dru Hill. It’s funny how you can describe the ups and downs of a relationship by listening to one artist. I was thinking about this the other day. As far as the question goes, I’ve been in a situation where I didn’t want to give up. I stayed and stayed and stayed hoping she would change her mind. I thought that if I kept working hard that she would come around. What made me stay longer was she kept giving me signs like she was going to come around. So I stayed linger. Finally I got tired of the run around and gave up. And guess what happened. She tried to come back around after I threw up the deuces. Women kill me with that, although I know that we do it too.

    It’s all interesting to me.

  • Third_of_August

    Nice one, FG.

    If only there were women out there that actually appreciated men that had some sense in then and were able to express themselves as well as you just posted….

    I’ve always wondered how the same stuff that applies for everyone else can never seem to generate positive results for me.

  • Missy

    The true beauty of music is that it captures the very essence of life from the mundane to the magnificent and puts it to music. When there are things that can’t be spoken, they can always be sung. During the times when no words are needed well…there is classical and jazz.

  • Royalty

    Wow, these songs brought back memories. I’ve been in a relationship where we both refused to believe that it was over. We both knew that the relationship had ran it’s course but yet we stil tried to force it to be something. We’re doing better now and there is a 12 hr distance. It’s hard to let go but sometimes you just have to.

  • Lady Di

    Beautiful…sad, but beautiful. Been there and done that – my story and his began in high school and ended there. Rekindled 4 years later when we were both committed, so we could do nothing about it. Lost him again, then found him just in time for our 10 year H.S. reunion. Married the week after – been going strong for 19 years since. Hang in there – it can happen again…

  • Christen

    were both in new relationships have been for a few years but we have a child together and when ever we see, speak to eachother we both asked the question what happened to us we never imagined our life with out the other but we feel like to much time has passed and we dont wont to hurt the new people in our life. he told me he would always love & no one could ever replace me and I feel the same, maybe one day.

  • WTF

    After 7 years, we parted ways with a lot of pain, anger & contempt.

    2 years of therapy, 2 years of traveling the world and unconditionally loving for myself was the resolution.
