Where Are We Now

Where do we go when we’re done?

Do we know it’s over?

They say we live on

Never truly gone

 

Maybe I was gone long ago

That life ended but we weren’t ready

They say we live on

Never truly here

 

We weren’t ready to let go of that story

My life goes on in their words

They keep narrating unwilling to let go

Pulling me in two directions

 

Until I’m not here nor there

Never truly gone

But never really here

 

We can’t be whole if we don’t let go

My mind is tired from existing in two worlds

We can’t live spread so thin

Maybe I was gone long ago

 

Where do we go when we’re gone?

On to the next life

Time to move on

Time to say goodbye

 

I has her and she was me

But we parted ways and now I’m new

Where do we go when our story ends?

We have to start anew

 

They say we live on

Never truly gone
