Finished Book

Looking back when we met
I felt so alive beside you
We both felt like a puzzle that fit so perfectly
There was no I without you
Neither you without I
"Us" was the best word to describe u n I

We were a book I enjoyed writing
A poem I loved
An equation that couldn't be easily separated
Each chapter I wrote with joy
Turning a page was easier than one would think
Because each page was so great

Before I knew it
There book needed to it
I had wished for it never to end 
Although deep down we were both just characters
Without the book we didn't exist
I had know the day would arise
Etswe sesafeleng sea hlola

I wish we would have been a book that never ended
A poem that continued for centuries
I wish we were like the sun;
That set only to rise more brighter tomorrow
