What ever happened to the husband and wife <br />What ever happened to love <br />What ever happened to the dreams they thought right <br />That they both thought so much of <br /> <br />What ever happened to the holding of hands <br />Or the whispers of secrets to keep <br />Did it somehow slip away with the time <br />Is it somewhere still hidden beneath <br /> <br />What ever happened to the words I do <br />Replaced now with words of cruel <br />Does somehow it still linger on <br />Is love only lost and confused <br /> <br />What ever happened to the romance <br />And the love that was in each breath we took <br />Must somehow be forgotten now <br />Was this in the chances we took <br /> <br />What ever happened to the husband and wife <br />What ever happened to love <br />What will now happen to the rest of our lives <br />For love, was it overlooked <br /> <br />What will now happen to the dreams we once had <br />When the world was right at our feet <br />Is love somehow still hidden somewhere <br />Or is this the way it must be <br /> <br />There once was a time when it meant so much more <br />When love walked with us in life <br />What ever happened to the love in our hearts <br />What happened to the husband and wife. <br /> <br />copyright 2004 Bill Simmons <br />aka BillWilliamStar@aol.com<br /><br />Bill Simmons<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-husband-and-wife/
