in another lifetime.

ˋˏ✄┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈┈

then i met you.

you took my hand and showed me what it felt like to be alive again

you gave me a reason to stay.

it felt like i had the moon while everyone had the stars

but you found me when i was at my lowest. how could i love you if i couldn't even love myself?

i wanted to give you my all, but we both know you deserved more than what i could offer.

as our hands start to lose its grasp, i held on tighter

but you let go.

we were the prime example that not all soulmates are destined to be together

one day we could love each other again, and i could love myself the way you loved me

maybe in another lifetime.
