Lifelines

Now that you know me; I am in your life for a reason - I am in your life for a season. I may be only your happenstance your afterthought that comes when all your cards are played. Maybe I am your Ace in the hole. Maybe I am your place to go when there's nowhere else to turn... Better I be burned into your memory Forged into your lifeline Better than being nonexistent, like a spirit unavailable. Open your hand and read my marks. That's the depth of me burrowed I replenish, I then branch off at the wrist fading out of the flesh to watch you trekking the short distance. You are left alone with your maker You and he finish strong. I witness another winner and then I am gone. Taking my place again in the back of your mind You also in mine. Lives entwined for a Season. imprinted in lifelines.
