Originally, this piece was written as a fan fiction a little while back. However, not long ago, I copied it out into my notepad and found that it also worked as an original piece, hence why it's now on here as well. I hope you like it. :-)
Once we were lost; lost in the chaos of everything. Without realising it we managed to wander off the paths of life and headed towards the open road - the open road that brought us to the places we didn't want to be; didn't want to see. We were there for a while, you and I. Sometimes, I thought we would never find our way again. I honestly did believe that we would be lost forever, but that didn't matter to me then, because I had you and you had me. Even if we never made it back on track, we would always have each other to lean on when the open road became hard and lonely.
I look back now and understand that it was because I had you that I managed to get myself back on the path I found myself wandering further away from. I can't say the same for you, but I know something brought you back and, whatever that something was, I'm glad it did and I'm glad that, now, we are both on the same path - the path that we should have always been on. This is the path that I can see many things emerging from. I see alleys. Some darker than others and it makes me curious to know what's within them, but I kelp walking we you down the route that's clear; the route that the sun forever shines on. Now that I think about it, it must have been one of these alleys that got us lost in the first place. One day, without realising, we walked down a dark alley, curious to know what was down there and, in doing so, we lost our way; always trying to find a way back out of the alley. But, for years, it seemed as though the further we walked, the deeper we went into the darkness and the harder it became to find the light.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, now that we're back where we belong and we can see everything clearly, thank you for being there for me during our time in the wilderness. It's hard to believe how lost we became, but all that matters now is that we're back and we're still together. So, if we do ever become lost like that again, I know that we will always have each other for support.
So here's to the long road ahead of us - the road which we will never lose our way on again because, even though we have no idea what's at the other end, we can walk this path with confidence that we will never lose our way again. This I the road we belong on and this is the road that we will walk for the rest of our life.
