The New Chapter

And she said:

If you start a new chapter
am I still with you on the new page
Or do you leave me behind
in the grave of old stories
Buried in my own pain,
never to be read again
Is my existence erased,
who am I if I’m no one,
if I’m nothing
and don’t even have a name

And he said:

See yourself in me
With each part of myself that I
acknowledge, I acknowledge you
As I integrate all pieces,
I integrate you even deeper
So how can I not take you with me
into the lines of the new chapter
You don’t see you on the new page,
for while writing the book of life,
we’re holding the pen together
