Cluttered mind

We were inseparable
Two lost souls intertwined
Connected by a force greater than human understanding could ever comprehend
I lost the arguments before concerns were ever even raised
So
Our children would never have to witness the fights.
I think back on the house we never built,
The trips we never took,
The life we never got to live,
An old age we would never reach
All because none of this ever happened
I never took that first step to meet you
I never found the words to speak to start something with you
The words I was fumbling through the clutter in my mind
They were
The words I could never find
And now
I'm lost in this world so alone
with the single word I never found
If I could go back
I would say "Hi"
