Mistakes

We were neither too young
Nor too old, back then
Simple things were all that mattered
We didn't ask for much

What happened?

I had my convictions
You had your doubts
I wanted to hold off
You wanted to hang on

What happened?

The weight of hesitation
Time passing for nothing
But the comfort of seeming
Together without being

What happened?

Fear of the unknown
Dread of what's ahead
Inaction
Anger

What happened?

Tried, again, too much...
More than I could bear
To give into and take
Was a slap and a blow

What happened?

Letting go
Each part and all at once
Wasn't easy
For either of our reasons...



Now my page is blank
With a marker in hand
I lend you my last eraser
For the pencil sketches you still keep on yours

There not mistakes.....
There just not meant to be.....
There life's lessons.....
There, there for us to learn.....

We all need a sense of closure...
Some learn differently from others
What is "sorry" when the damage has been done?
Mis-take ---> taken wrongly ... A re-take doesn't seem wise...

Time passes
Choices made
People change
Some a little more than others.
Some a little less than ought to be.
