Poem Title:
Poem
Two young ones brought together into an orbit left to spin. They fought recklessly forever wanting to be right and to win. Two young children growing up secretly holding in the night. While every one knew they circled endlessly in their plight. Never leaving orbit like sharks they did swim. Both fighting the attraction, while waiting for it to end. They left, came back, and left, forever, yet again. With time they slowly grew up, held tight in the spin. Then one finally woke up and knew his way that day. Stopping the games, he found he couldn’t circle and stay. Finally, he left the circle and went to her straight away. But his frustrations made him bite her badly as he walked away. Then he left vowing to never come back to this bend. The wind breathed ” Go Back. Go Back. Don’t let her get away.” “Go back. Go back. You must make her yours today.” But she was still caught in the spin and the same old ways. But her circle now looked to others to add to the spin. So he sat down to wait as her circle went on again. But the spin didn’t include him as number one any more. He knew any moment the circle would lose it’s hold and they would be dawn. When she realized he’d stopped spinning, and was trying to hold her close. They would be together if they learned to dance this time back and forth. They would be together if her, he could quietly hold. It would take more than presents, only patience and a heart of love and gold. She would have to forgive, to make things right again. But his leaving words had quite a bite, and held them still apart. So they went back to spinning as he slowly sought her heart. The one he had broken and so deeply torn apart.
