Vulnerable
Twenty years she stood next to me
I felt hurt, at peace, embarrassed
Too vulnerable to let go
Too sad to move on
Too glad the lies done
Feelings faded yet
Imprisoned by memories
How temporary it all became
As we walked the shoreline
We became strangers again
To let go
To say no
To fall below, feel void
Two people
Two seconds
Two spirits connected by time
I held her hand as the earth faded
I wanted her to know that she'll always be my family
I felt hurt, at peace, embarrassed
Too vulnerable to let go
Too sad to move on
Too glad the lies done
Feelings faded yet
Imprisoned by memories
How temporary it all became
As we walked the shoreline
We became strangers again
To let go
To say no
To fall below, feel void
Two people
Two seconds
Two spirits connected by time
I held her hand as the earth faded
I wanted her to know that she'll always be my family
