We were...

We were...
Never close,
Just close enough to pillage
Thinking that...
We were
Back to back,
Protecting one another from...
This world insane
Instead...
We were
Worst, far worst than
Any of our conceived enemies
Missing to this very day...
Is the place where loyalty once roamed
Now, older I care not to reminisce
Just reflection incites contempt
Upon moments in time when...
We were...
Inseparable, to peas in a pod
So to simply say hello feels odd
In the face of harsh realities
Finding comfort in what once was
Is too much to confront
I've bid my farewells
Safe travels to you and yours I offer
Although at this time we can't be mutal...
I can't see us as acquaintances
Because in spite of denial
I remember how...
We were...and what transpired
We are leaves passing in the wind...
