Summary:
An old one but I thought to add it here

Time began with voices
Whispering in the head
They often made the choices
Enshrouded with dread
What do they want?
Loud with decisions
Why do they taunt?
Constant collisions

But along came you
A goofy smile spread
You were troubled too
Together we tread
A cheek to kiss
A hand to hold
Here in the abyss
Sweet whispers told

How theyd coo
Seemingly harmonized
The luck to have met you
I was surprised
Free I wished
From the bickering chorus
You were a gift
Who was i before us?

But as time went on
Disputes ignite
I’m merely a pawn
In their fight
Mistakes persists
You pour your heart,
Through clenched fists
I broke us apart

At fault was I
To think they were fixed
I felt you cry
My feelings mixed
Trapped with the past
The future unfolds
How did I outlast
The shiniest of golds

The future rushed
The present adrift
The past hushed
Life must be treated like a gift
