P

Our friendship was our fate
Endless nights of nonsensical togetherness
A yearning that never subdued
Forsaken heart was the destiny

In silence we spoke of love
Forbidden we shared our thoughts
In our isolation we had each other
In borrowed time we were together

Our journey took years
In despair we were aware
Hoped love would fade and be a memory
But the heavy heart betrayed the longing

Voices of the past sang our tomorrow
As the coward soul wept
Closed the door to our path
Hid the key that was there for you

Goodbye had been concluded
In the heart it never ceased
But then life meant choices
Fate, destiny or today.

I chose today.
