Strangers Together
All of the time that we spent together has ended this way
Laughing together
Starting out in this friendship has created a new beginning
Loving together
Not letting the sins from others to define our hearts
Running together
Building a home for our future and our family
Living together
Watching jealousy feed into the hatred of the blinded fools
Growing together
Trying to make our easy way through all bad times
Struggling together
Ghosts of who we once were as walls crumble around us
Hating together
Recounting about how wrong we were as our hearts are torn apart
Crying together
Shadows of our empty home and recollections of what should be
Separating together
All of the time that we spent together has ended this way
Strangers together
