Futility

There was a time,
when we were lost
in each other's eyes.
I wonder how,
things got to this point
of no return.

I loved you, with all my heart,
and could move mountains
just to be with you.
As time went by,
I know not why
everything I did seemed futile.

I nomore
long to be with you,
or miss you as I did before.
You are gone, but I feel releived,
calm and serene
like a quiet ocean shore.

I wonder, what was 
me and you together ...
lust, love or nothing.
I ask my heart
I search my soul,
It just feels empty within.
