After and Forever, It's All the Same

The particulars aren’t that important, but let me ty to explain The after is now, and forever hasn’t began I recently met my twin and I saw when forever would begin He is the flame in my life, after the darkness begins He became my forever and the after has never been the same After this life, after this world, after is after all over again We are always in the now, for after shuttles the pain So after is the now, after feels the pain, after brings it all home again We live in it, we consume it, we hold it in our hands After is the now, as it has already began It’s that circular pattern, it’s the Yin, it’s the Yang Forever is always to come, for it shall never be done We hold it dear, we look past the now, we expect it to fulfill us somehow So forever holds us captive, forever is the ‘then’, forever is the ‘come’… For it never truly begins My twin is forever mine, after & forever My twin is after now and one day will be forever After & forever began somehow After & forever begins right now Somehow in the beginning we twisted and twined Like the ‘chicken or the egg’, it began in the now 12/16/17
