You believe you can see the future; perhaps your future moved with time.
But, you forgot to mention your change of direction,
To the one who you shared your life with; to the one who you included in your dreams.
Once I asked you, “Do you believe in God?”
You smiled at me.
Not that I really cared; just wanted to see if you would tell me your truth in view.
I never believed in a god.
But, I believed in us.
I came for you like a higher power; you told me I was perfect.
You say you can see the future?
Well Honey, so can I.
But like a bird, I took to higher ground; looking far below me for my truth in view.
Because in my future,
My hopeful future,
I included you.
When You Were Mine
