An Unfortunate Lifetime

In another lifetime

You’re my loyal best friend

You’re my sole lover until our lives end

Together we conquer the world

Every whispered doubt left unheard

We cherish every milestone

We are what we call home

In this lifetime

I fought every battle for us

Until I found myself at the bitter end

Discarded I could not recover

Or ever fully trust another

I spent the rest of forever alone

Never feeling the tranquility of home

In any lifetime

We may not get to keep the one we need most

Left to wander alone lost with our ghosts

Time does not heal all wounds

Some cuts are just too deep

They’re ripped open

And left every day to weep
