It hurt
When our souls were ripped apart;
We were made as one.
The agony has echoed through my life
Of the moment when the sun hit my eyes
And you were torn from me
For what has felt like a lifetime,
Of when they announced our arrivals
To two sets of parents
And we were taken home in different cities,
And we were ripped from each other
From loving darkness to blinding, aching light,
Left to wander
Until we might find
Each other again.
