They Will Need Another Lifetime
Shuffling through life in a slow and painful way
Expecting the worst almost every single day
The lonely, angry man who had never felt love
Had no idea he had spiritual guardians above
They tried to reach his heart in a variety of ways
But he hardened it careful, and never did praise.
He had been hurt by his father and mother.
He had given up on people including his brother.
Until their deaths, the twins lived in the same town.
Neither reaching out, both feeling quite despairingly down.
It’s too bad they did not have each other their guides often said.
Hoping they would be reunited and happier before they were dead.
It was a life that was wasted, which they figured out on their review.
We sent you together, so at least you would have each other, you two.
Sure your parents were not the best, but these lessons were for you.
Now you have to re-live this life so you can learn what to much better do.
