Alone She Sleeps

-Alone She Sleeps- by Keaton Foster



Alone she sleeps
Next to me she seems
She is as far away
As could possibly be
Her and I are as one
In the eyes of God
But no one else
Most of all us
I call her wife
She calls me husband
She assures me that there
Are things between us
That can never be undone
I agree because of all
That I have done
I am responsible
I did what I did
Without concern for her
Without a care for us
I am a crooked man
In her world full of straight
She knows where she is going
Her path has always been defined
If anything, I have been a speed bump
A detour that she just needs to plow through
She so desperately wants to leave me behind
In her wake, suckling on her dust
Her promise to God with regard to us
Is quickly coming to mean less and less
He will forgive her if she fails
His kindness, his sympathy she deserves
She knows him well, far better than most
I will not be forgiven, how could I be
A cruel rule of slide that God dabbles in
He will punish me for my sins
Even if I don't believe in him
He will make an example of me
And so should he
I am doomed by my actions
Condemned by my choices
I can blame no one, but myself
Alone she sleeps
Next to me she seems
She is as far away
As could possibly be
By the break of dawn
Her and I will no longer be as one
We will be two separate beings
On completely different paths
Hers has always been defined
Mine has not…
