Trials

If what's between us is not forever
Then why have you outlasted all the trials and tribulations of my life?

If we are not soul mates
How is it that we descended deeply into madness
And still remembered each other upon emerging?

Now, mind unchained and free
I think of you:
The one who shielded me from the wind and rain
In an empty place where I suffered under the night sky
Forgetting how beautifully the stars sparkled above me.

Come along and meet me in a new place under the sun
So we can discover the truth of what's between us
The bond that persuaded us to smile for one another.
