time

memories that tear
& dare to compare
old days
lost ways
our souls
lost control
while we wandered
and wondered
what our futures held
we were compelled
try to spell out our paths
would we last?
or just dwell on the past
memories enriched & strong
for so long
we tried
and cried
between love & lust
we found trust
we lost hope
& still we cope
and strive
just happy to be alive
here us two
all we've come through
joy & pain
we maintain
while delegating our strain
our blood pumps
through us
holds &
molds us
affliction of affection
pure & true connection
can lead us
in the right direction
completely
fully & truly
who? WE
just ...
you & me
