An Ode to Life

You were right
You get "high" and I get "low"
I was wrong
I can't take it back now
What's done is done
So they sang "let it be, let it be"
But with quickening speed i feel it
My heart shattering like glass on the concrete
Not for you
Not for me
Not for anyone particular
Just the whole of society
This world we live in is fucked up beyond repair
Yet as i walk down the street I see the beauty that He intended
The smile of a baby, a couple of many years holding hands and strolling, a good Samaritan helping the needy
For were we not told to love the unloveable?
I still love you
Will you love me?
I miss the laughs, the jokes, the talks, the cries.
I miss your company as my companion
I wish more than anything that I could help you
I wish I could take your pain and take it on as my own
I wish you were happy without it
But it is not up to me
You can only love someone else as much as you love yourself
We don't love ourselves, you and I
You'll have to fix you
I'll have to fix me
That's the only way things can be done
There's a long road ahead
But I know you'll travel swiftly and truly, because you have the strength
I hope I can be strong too, an I hope I'll make it down that road as well
I hope we'll be able to meet up at the end
I do not want to lose one of my very best friends.
