Poetry of a Lifetime

Before, Now & After

Long has been this lonesome journey
For in truth you are my destination
Once there, I had to compete in the tourney
Before infinity, we were sharing my only ration

So we walked and lived amongst the lives
Believing in unexpected smiles
For we grew in love through our strives
But there were too many miles

Our everlasting love was torn apart
For I was too proud, yet too confused
And therefore I lost my heart
You took it and I was left a soul, dead & bruised
