when we met…
we were a triple threat…
he said… she said… we said…
everybody placed their bet…
how long would the magic last…
when illusions vanish fast…
our hands quicker than our eyes…
we weren’t surprised…
what we saw… is what we draw…
conclusions vs. delusions...
egos suffering contusions…
from envy to scorn…
happy to forlorn…

that’s what happened to us…

we began falling out of love…
all our feelings…
going… going… gone…
what went wrong…?
cold to hot… when unaware…
hot to cold… like we never really cared…
when we talked… it was heavy… dead air… empty stares…
we hoped the other would say goodbye… and… nobody would cry…
try to save us… why…
that would be a lie…

now… we’re moving on…

bygones in the past…
we ask…
is acceptance worth the task…?
no… yes… maybe…
it is…
sealed with a kiss…
an unconditional kiss of familiarity…
wakens the sleeping beauty…
in all of us…
who do we trust…?
communication a must… or a bust…?
who knows… what the future holds…
as we travel the same roads…
again… and again… and again…
unfettered…
refusing to pretend…

WOw!!!
acceptance isn't earned
it's given
so NO
it isn't worth the task
or maybe
depends really
sometimes we have to dig our own way
out of these dark holes
just for a moment of sunshine
so if your sunshine is away
fight your way into the heart

hi, bo... you are right...
sometimes we have to dig our selves out of dark holes...
especially when it seems we are being buried alive...

as always, KiK... and I thank you for taking the time to read it... and responding...
