For we were once soulmates...

To make some trust, mix some futility with facade
'cos nothing is more tricky than some erratic words
an ensemble of feelings spelt as love.
To live together, yet separate, we need some love
We need, we need, we cry in our greed
Love that separates us from who we are
A slow moving dance with poor movement
For once, we were soulmates, for once, we were something
You'll hear 'em say again and again
For once, in this lowly life, we believed in ourselves!
Hear, hear!
That self was deceptive, a rogue in the mirror
For big words were used to sell small shams
In smaller homes where magnanimous hearts bravely fought and died
From who we were to a stranger today
The soulmates who mourn the bond of yesterday
are made of clay, and dust.
