Two Hearts One Love (5 page)

"Baby, look how fast your daughter
’
s grown,"
she said as she crouched down in front of Blake
’
s
headstone.

Baby
Samantha barely stirred from her peaceful nap as Sarah moved the
blanket up to keep her warm.

Sarah placed a soft kiss on their daughter
’
s
forehead. Every time she looked at her, she was reminded of Blake.
She had her father
’
s eyes. So innocent, so green and
just as beautiful. Just like her daddy.

"Blake,
I miss you so much. We both miss you. I don't know how I will be
able to do this without you."

A subtle
breeze rustled the trees and they rocked gently.

Tears continued to fall as the pain and heartache overwhelmed
her. She let them fall. Let all the pain flow through them. All the
emotions she
’
d held inside were freed with
each drop that cascaded down her cheeks.

She
cuddled Samantha in her arms. Today would have been their one year
anniversary. They would have been married, together, a family. But
life had chosen a different path for her. Blake had been taken
away, and now she had to gather the strength to get through this
for their daughter and for herself.

Wiping
away her tears, Sarah reached toward his gravestone. Her fingers
slowly traced the engraving of his name. Beloved brother, son, and
husband.

"And
father," she whispered. She brought her fingers up to her mouth,
kissed them and placed them over his name.

"I will
always love you, Blake," she said as she stood up.

With one
final look, she turned and began to walk away.

VERSE

"I won't let you watch me waste away while I chase after
nothing"

"Keep fighting for someone who's lost all faith"

"Taken away the honesty of life"

“
You promised me you'd never run away from what we
had"

"I loved you with everything"

"The good and bad"

"But you took it for granted"

"When you closed your heart off to it all"

"Stood and watched us burn to the ground"

"As the hate grew and consumed you"

CHORUS

"You let your feelings of lost and lonely tear you
apart”

"Cloud your eyes to what is right in front of you"

"Instead you looked for what was nowhere in sight"

"Hide from the truth of what you have done"

"Hide from the pain and the lie that you've
created"

"Your choices have left you scattered and faded with
blindness to your beliefs."

"Left you scattered and faded with denial."

VERSE

"Love took on a whole new meaning when you were in my
life"

"I wonder if you were you ever real. Or a figment of my
imagination"

"Then I look at all the damage you've done"

"The trails of pain and misery you left behind"

"Will you ever pay the price for all the
destruction?"

"All that's left are photographs of something that once
existed"

"Times I would rather forget"

BRIDGE

"I want to reach inside my mind and erase it all"

"I want to reach into my heart and soul, erase any existence
of you"

"Forget who you are. Wipe my memories away."

"I wish someone would take them away and bury them
deep"

"Somewhere where they would never be found"

"I hate what you've done"

"Left me battered and bruised"

"My strength to fight will help me escape, save me from
falling over the edge where I can't turn back"

CHORUS

"You let your feelings of lost and lonely tear you
apart”

"Cloud your eyes to what was right in front of
you"

"Instead you looked for what was nowhere in sight"

"Hide from the truth of what you have done"

"Hide from the pain and the lie that you've
created"

"Your choices have left you scattered and faded with
blindness to your beliefs"

"Left you scattered and faded with denial"
