The Life You Left Behind

My life was grim,
Until you let me into yours.
Now without me within,
You’ve started anew behind closed doors.

I want to be in yours, with you
Instead of alone in mine.  
But in yours I pursue,
In the life you left behind.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
