Thank You For You

You're still here whispering, but the truth is still ringing in my ears
And yea, I got the message.
The part of me always missing made it loud and clear.

And I wish that I regretted you
And that I wanted to forget.
But you changed me, made me whole, made me truly let go

And now our fates our intertwined
And part of your heart I keep locked wholly in mine

I imagine our lives lived out with each other but try not to
For I know this means never moving on from the "us" that is just me in love with you

I retrace any of the times when I think it started to go wrong
But I'm left remembering our beautiful existence that never even lasted that long

The deep engravement of you is chiseled on my soul, coalesced with my breath, braided into my thoughts
I never even realized I was being overtaken by you
I certainly never imagined having to deal with this loss

I love you like I will never love another
My heart beat with yours unlike any other

But I am so thankful that I was able to feel that way
It was all worth it to feel like yours for even our brevity of days

I am plagued with the thought that I might never feel that deep again
Maybe it's true that I'm destined to never be the wife, but eternally the friend
