Where Do We Go From Here?
Now the love has gone and open wounds will not heal Wanting to move on but paralyzed limbs are planted in stone
Neither wanting to make a decision Who will go first to choose freedom? Is that what it will be? Free from each other? Did we try hard enough, if at all?
Too in love to let it go and break the tie that binds Who is fooling who? The love is missing What magnetic force is in play?
Is it time to rip off the Band Aid we plastered on the cuts and bruises from angry words weaponized? Time to stop kissing better those things that won’t ever?
I will mourn each day Because he is gone You are now living in his body But you are not him You are a shadow of who he once was
You look like him But you are someone else A person I don’t know A stranger in my midst who sees someone else when he looks at me
