Once was there to share not quarrel
Love returned, his way
Acceptance from the teenaged years
A mutual love gone astray

Unfaithfulness, in past, his need
Reversal of once held deep
Today a minus of mathematical term
Each in aloneness to sleep
                        
Who knows the misunderstandings best
Or the level of deceit
No matter, time has worn it smooth
In crossing accepting defeat
            
            ~~~~~~~~~~~~

There in the future, beginnings could be
Of differences resolved (if upright)
Or maybe harmony or mutual trust
Of another to share in the night

If drawn in sympathy to the one now in need
Lay it down, pick another, for I
Would rather aloneness with memories old
Be held in affection's imply

It's all in the hands of each, you see
Two cups half empty, half full
Upright or reversed, could be love in the air
A time-line from each end that has pull.

well..I am even more moody than you, K...so I have to be in the proper mood to even want to do a challenge or even write or understand another's poem...and sometimes this  eldwrly mind of mine just doesn't want to cooperate...

I guess I was lucky today~~ besides this one is my life

v. well done 'write'!

Excluding perhaps the 'rich and (in)famous', I believe that the majority
of folks our age have lives which have veered into the 'tragic'... I have
most certainly been 'rundown' by the (alleged) "American Dream" (and
'paved over' by the "information superhighway")...leaving destroyed lives
and relationships (and 'emotional zombies' at best) in its wake!

Applause for this penning!
