never yourS

[Shakes your hand.]

It was nice to meet you
If I ever did.

I watched each day
As the tower erected.

Boundaries in place
Protecting the innocent.

Letters exchanged
But never signed.

l’ll see you soon
On the other side.

They say our lives
are the blink of an eye.

Do you hear it, my love?
Heaven’s applause:
“Well done, My son.
She was never yours.”
