My Greedy Love Oh How I Have Long Lost You My Dear

today was a lost day
but tomorrow is ours
as its is for told to be
a day of rain and lush
beauty in every corner 
a stone in my heart and eyes  filed with warmth of fiery stones fills my mind with greed I took it for nothing and I sought more 
alike 
yet I seem troubled
without my love
 I was nothing 
and yet I was everything
I had it all
wealth
power
yet no
love
I have seemed to lost myself in my sea of greed and wealth
I am truly hopeless 
and nearly dead
full of dread
and tears
at my death bed 
I am everything 
yet nothing
alike
time will carry me on
 I am near
I am near to my end our end
I can see the light and darkness
I  am gone and so is she
we were once one and two
yet now 
neither
only apart
In time and in mind
spirit alike
