This convoluted dance we do
just breaks my heart and makes me blue;
you walk away - I follow you
and track rewind won't see us through.

This dance of love, I waltz in pain
the go away and come again
I feel the hurt and sense the strain
I would stop now if I'd a brain

I care too much - you care too few
and I in hope will make things new;
yet still I drink this bitter brew
and dance in spirals of love's rue.

You dance away out of my reach
I seek you out, to love beseech,
you'd think I'd learned enough to teach
there is desire we should not breach.

When I abstain from sight of you
you seek me out; plead love is true
then I return to heart of you,
resume again this dance we do.

This convoluted dance will send
one message to the very end
we cannot part - must always tend
the dance of passion, not of friend.

Blow hot and cold like chimney's flue
in convolutions of we two
the go away - return to you
are symbols of the dance we do

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind.  Unknown

Pain and joy alternatively hold your hands while you dance.
This is life. And your poem is beautiful.
Love, Margherita

Lovely rhyme Keth.  Isn't this the way that
too many of us do this dance?

And on and on it goes... a marathon dance that never ends... and leaves heart shards littering the floor. *S*

This is superb, Keth!! *S*

This is one heck of a beautiful poem Kethry, if I may say and so recognizeble to many I think.

Hugs, Titia
