Not Exactly
We're not exactly strangers
We're not exactly friends.
We're not exactly lovers.
We're not exactly girlfriend/boyfriend
We're not exactly exes.
We're not exactly in love
We're not exactly in hate
We're not exactly a couple
We're not exactly broken up
We're not exactly harmonious
We're not exactly discordanent
We're not exactly happy
We're not exactly sad
We're not exactly forgiven
We're not exactly angered
Then what are we? I ask
We're a strange combination
A mystical delight
We are lovers who remain friends
And still kiss and cuddle
We're who we are
And as much as I would like to go back
I know
We aren't exactly lovers

In human relationships there are all kinds/forms/degrees of love which work for some and not others; which suit somes needs but leave others feeling cold and barren. You poem is interesting from that standpoint-I prefer an all-embracing, unquestionable love--but how often does that happen?

Thanks for your poem.

Well, this type of love is good for me at this time in my life. I don't want a real relationship as bf/gf and I don't not want to have him in my life. Right now, its carpe diem and smile... I take what I can get. Its turning into more again. But this time there's more trust and understanding. I understand your viewpt...:-)

Hope something happens where you either become JUST friends or bf/gf again. The dragging it on thing could suck... If someone else asked you on a date would you go or would you feel you had loyalties to him? Would he feel the same?
