We used to be

the ones admired

and we led the

way in wholesome

values and all that shit.

 

But across the years

and the tears and

all the accomplishments

and the sadness

and the smiles,

we lost the way,

we lost the way

to each other,

we lost the will

to be something together.

 

We lost the way

to the truth of the other,

in all that we were

for those not us,

in the fuss and

the fucking around

that made us lose

the way,

the way that

we always found

In better days.

 

We used to be

the model, the model

for others who never

doubted our value,

our value for each other;

but we lost the way

to each other,

we lost the place

where we met to

be just us.
