Five

It is crazy how the only thing I have ever been certain about
Turned out to be the one thing that would tear me inside and out
Four years ago I was boasting our first year married anniversary
All the congratulations and hopeful wishes now seem meaningless
I stopped trying to comprehend our downfall
We were just a ticking time bomb after all
Our highs were high and our lows were low
Constantly stuck between fight and flight
Foolishly I believed if not now
Time would bring us back together
And maybe that is where I went wrong
My problem was not being naive, I was not blinded
I made you my world - my sun, moon and stars
And now I cannot close my eyes
You haunt me in my dreams and memories
Maybe that is the only forever we were meant to be
Lovers stuck in purgatory.
