Heartstrung (song in progress)

Although you’re no longer by my side

Although we each take our separate ways

Although both take our different rides

Although we’re split in where we shall stay

The two of us, inseparable

The both of us, connected, one soul

The pair of us, twins, identical

The differences, forever condole

Pulling on heartstrings as we depart

Bawling and crying our waterfalls

Held together strong in our hearts

Through our weakened states, standing tall

And we are heartstrung

Bound tight in this song

And we are heartstrung

Flowing with the tears

Each and every step of every day

Turning to my side to discover

Not walking alongside there to convey

That the sight brought upon you shivers

No laughter, no tears, no sharing thoughts

Farewell the midnight phone calls and texts

No guilty ice cream after we fought

Goodbye to giggling over what’s next

Pulling on heartstrings as we depart

Bawling and crying our waterfalls

Held together strong in our hearts

Through our weakened states, standing tall

And we are heartstrung

Bound tight in this song

And we are heartstrung

Flowing with the tears

Days drag on, only seconds gone by

Remembering all the times we’ve shared

The prank calls, oh how clever, how sly

The playground games, running in our pairs

And we are heartstrung

Bound tight in this song

And we are heartstrung

Flowing with the tears

And in our newer lives apart

Know I am a phone call away

And closer, residing in your heart

Any distance can’t cause our bond’s fray

Stronger than any ocean’s power

Nothing brings about our disarray

Picking up on our school days’ chatter

As if it were simply yesterday

And we are heartstrung

Bound tight in this song

And we are heartstrung

Flowing with the tears

And we are heartstrung

Tighter than this song

And we are heartstrung

Always both along
