This Too Shall Pass
I miss the era of blissful days,
Lost in a time of lavender and ocean spray,
Together we could do anything,
I thought you loved me,
Bound together by celestial whisperings,
Aloft in our own world of sweet nothings,
Your body, my instrument,
I thought you wanted me.
But amidst the rain and soaked cotton,
Of a night not easily forgotten,
Through sorrow and worry you changed,
I thought you knew me.
The sky surrendered to gray,
And the sun had gone away,
You never had time to spare,
I thought you cared for me.
You severed the cord,
Connecting us together forever,
You went away and I was left alone,
I thought you would return to me.
It’s been quite some time,
Since we were intertwined,
I thought you would miss me,
But I ended up needing you.
