Break In Two

one day soulmates will break in two

I’ll never be able to let go of you

even when I’m told I have to,

the bridges inside me topple

as fallen infantries position 

themselves to defend the Somme,

I know I won’t last long without you

even if I’m told I have to,

the sedatives I swallow 

and the abyss in which I wallow

are insurmountable, these depths

you’d pull me through,

I won’t ever be able to forget you

even when I’m told I have to
