Together: Alone

Together, they'll stare out the window,
into the street.
Together, these souls are still alone.
Alone and obsolete.
Together, they'll dream of a life
so complete.
Together, these hearts remain alone.
They must retreat.
Apart, they take on untaken paths
to find a friend.
Apart they prosper with who they are
and in the end--
Together bound by foolish terms
never going far;
apart, for reasons noble and true,
they'll learn just who they are.

Great, there are two sides to this poem...sad but true. I completely agree with
"Together bound by foolish terms
never going far;
apart, for reasons noble and true,
they'll learn just who they are."

Really honest...REAL.

You definately have a very unique way of combining your words and thoughts to mean more than just what the words claim. I think I have probably read all of your poems and they are wonderful! can't wait to read your next one! ~*~Jessica~*~
