Between Now and Forever

something sacred is between us
something that no other two people could ever experience
nothing can compare to what lies between us
even though we're not an us
we're a YOU and I
separated by this and that, and that and this and....
where does that end us at?
nowhere because we don't agree on anything
but we connect on all levels
how sacred what we have is
even though we have been through a lot in a short time
even though one minute we can be mad at each other and the next...
something sacred is between us
even though we are separated by our hearts...the same two hearts that make us one

i'm distant, but only by choice
no entrapment here
only free will
i choose this
because this is who i am
the inner being, the compassionate one
life filled, hope filled
but only by choice, remember...this is who i am
broken away from society
yes, the one that almost caused me my life
uh huh, the one that almost caused me my soul
no more though
because this is the road i choose
yes, by choice
because this is who i'm meant to be

my daddy my was my soldier
my protector, my consoler
he made my days brighter
when the sun didn't want to seem to come out
he captured my tears in his hand and kept them safe in his heart
i was his right hand girl
there for the ride
there for 'til the end
when he departed
he left me
feeling alone, even though mommy was here
i was alone, because i was part of him
and i died when he died
and that void has yet to be filled
