Past Lives, Forevers....
There is enough past in me
to build a thousand lives.
Enough lives
to love until forever.
Enough forevers
to know they never last.
But in all my past,
in all my lives,
in all my forevers,
there shall always be
only one of you.
Without you,
my past does not matter
because my past
is only you.
Without you,
forever does not exist.
I promised I�d love you that long;
I�d love only you.
But you are not here.
You are gone.
So in a manner of speaking,
I am without you.
But, alas! I lie.
My past still matters.
I met you in it.
My past holds you.
My lives do matter.
They�re all I have to find you,
the time left to love you.
My lives hold you.
My forevers still matter.
I cannot break my promise.
I�ll love you forever.
Forever holds you, too.
So you�re still in me,
in very important parts of me.
You�re in my past,
my future,
my forevers.
You cannot leave me,
though we are two,
but, in my heart,
always united as one.
