We both couldn't guard it,
Couldn’t protect what
was precious to us,
And now we're standing here,
With this great distance between us,
having lost what was gravely cherished,
Wondering what we did wrong,
How we got here.
If only we had no emotions.
Maybe it's me,
Maybe it's not you.
Maybe if I felt nothing,
Maybe if I was just a machine,
You could key in the formula and
I could react as how you would want me
to.
What a tragedy it is,
To be humans,
Humans with mind, spirit and body,
with thoughts, emotions and actions.
Interlinked to each other,
yet so distinctly different.
Amidst all these differences,
we were called to guard this love of
ours.
Should I be surprised that we failed?
I ask myself what I could have done
differently,
Where we went wrong,
I ask myself,
If I had a time machine, would I go back
in time to change anything?
Some things maybe, but so little
actually.
Perhaps
Perhaps it was truly meant to be lost,
Perhaps there was nothing we could have
done to save it,
Perhaps there is nothing we can do now
to keep it,
Perhaps, just perhaps,
We were truly meant to lose each other.
