Drift

a different place
in a long ago time
when we were together
when you were mine
we could have made it
we might have been fine
it was outside influences
that started the decline
too many headaches 
for one lifetime
a steep, rocky mountain
which you can not climb
we started the drift
lost our mooring line
no way back
no longer entertwined
separate lives
that can't realign
we accepted the failure
and became resigned
an end to the love affair
a poem with out rhyme
