passion boils up and over
dribbling out words
and phrases which are never heard
portion of them
fall ungracefully toward
yesterday’s quarrel
merely adding more fuel to the inferno
within my thoughts
trying to tiptoe around the wreckage
trying to not disturb
all that unfinished business

~*~ The poor wish to be rich, the rich wish to be happy, the single wish to be married, and the married wish to be dead. ~*~

Yes, it is difficult to have a new argument w/o bringing up pass issues, the unresolved... and the supposedly resolved ones.

The trouble is as we get older we have more time to think.
I agree with Lori on this one.
