I miss We

I’m missing the we
We used to be.

Memories of you wash ashore
Before me as I stroll
This long, lonely
Shore of my now life.

I miss the we
We could have been.

I couldn’t raise a dowry
In your moment of bloom
And helplessly watched
Them marry you off.

Now, I can afford a thousand wives,
But they won’t mean as much to me.

I miss the we
We should have been.
