Losing You

I truly don't know how it came about,
But I feel that you are slipping away;
Where there was certainty now there is doubt,
And sadly I ask where things went astray.
My aching heart is full of unnamed fears,
And I dread to learn the unvarnished truth,
Because I know that all will end in tears,
That even time will be unable to sooth.
But perhaps my misgivings are groundless,
Merely unreal phantasms sent to torment
By the demons that have sought to possess
My soul; pain and anguish their dark intent.
Oh my soul’s dear twin, and my closest friend
We will be one until our lives shall end.
