Finding and losing my twin flame was hard on the system. It was hard on him too.
This is one of many poems I wrote to him about my journey. And I made it into a song.
My new flame helped me make it into an amazing song.

[verse]
Our friendship has always been my North Star
The guide to everything out there
And when we lost touch
I lost my compass
I sealed the wound with fire,
And trudged on with desire
Trying to recreate what we had,
The effortless close bond, over time becoming sad
People did not meet me half way
They did not grasp the world the same way
And so a small boat adrift I was
Alone bereft for me!
And that became my norm
And a new me for a time was born
I did not want to be close
Relationships made me morose
[chorus]
Pleasure was all I sought
To dampen grief and doubt
And that way I existed
For a long time just sort of delisted
Artimus born
Few wants, no needs
Completely free and no nervous energy
It’s calm to withdraw
To view life as a brawl that you no longer engage
[verse]
And then I hit tastes of want,
And it became need
And I tried again,
And did not succeed
So I settled and I slept
Most of me to myself I kept
And then once again you were here,
And well with joy I could interact without fear
And so I started again to create
And life is not over, it’s not to late
And here we are...
here we are...
we are...
[chorus]
Pleasure was all I sought
To dampen grief and doubt
And that way I existed
For a long time just sort of delisted
Artimus born!
Few wants, few want...
Completely free and no nervous energy
It’s calm to withdraw
To view life as a brawl that you no longer engage
[verse]
And then I hit tastes of want
And it became need
And I tried again
And did not succeed
So I settled and I slept
Most of me to myself I kept
And then once again you were here
And well with joy I could interact without fear
And so I started again to create
And life is not over, it’s not to late
[verse]
And then I hit tastes of want
And it became need
And I tried again
And did not succeed
So I settled and I slept,
Most of me to myself I kept
And then once again you were here,
And well with joy I could interact without fear
And so I started again to create,
And life is not over, it’s not to late
And here we are!
And here we are
here we are,
we are!!
