Gods
You were a god,
And I was a god,
We were both gods together.
You made the sun
And I made the clouds,
And then we made the weather.
The land was next
And then came the plants
And at long last came the water.
Next came creatures
And all of the people,
The parents, the sons and the daughters.
You were in love
and I was in love,
At first with each other.
But you started to stray
And you looked at me one day
And confessed there was another.
You left me
To go and be,
With a mortal man.
You traveled down,
To some strange town
On that cursed land.
But time flies by
And mortals die,
And oh, How your heart broke.
I had wished from your pain
I would gain
But I know now that I misspoke.
You were a god,
And I was a god,
And we were both gods together.
But even the greatest
Things of all,
Do not last forever.
So I took my pride,
And I took my sorrow,
And I gifted you mortality.
And you died in time,
You lost your memory,
And you never once missed me.
You joined your love in the afterlife
With welcoming arms,
The ones I used to hold.
And watching you,
Even though I'm ageless,
I feel dreadfully old.
