You and I
Tend to walk hand in hand
Until we meet a crossroads
Where the road splits in two
I choose the left
You choose the right
Tears flow down our faces
As the roads we travel
We may not turn around
No matter how long the roads may be
Thankfully
Both roads meet again in time
Where we rekindle our campfire
Laugh
Live
Love
Until we make the same choice that brought us here
Where we take opposite roads
I just pray
Someday
You’ll see what I see
In my eyes
You’re perfect
You always have been
You always will be
I wouldn’t dream
Of walking down these roads
With anyone else
Maybe at the next crossroads
You’ll be ready to traverse the same path
With me once again
For what I pray to be the last time
We have done this too many times
It’s beyond painful now
Leaving me with excruciating pain
And deep emotional scars
That refuse to heal without your help
I truly believe
What’s best for you
And what’s best for me
Is that we journey through life
Together
Always traveling the same road
