In Stages

IN STAGES Blush once and twice she’s taken Bit her lip in approval if otherwise mistaken The feeling is mutual Similarities of interests unusual Yet the constant urge preludes every individual The scenario a definite composite The future a definite opposite The zeal so strong at first You hold hands and do your best The first kiss The several I miss… Changed and fortified from the once bliss The sight you no longer can’t stand The palm you no longer hold in hand The love faded like it was doomed from the start to end The phone never rings no more The love doesn’t live here no more Interests changed That which we had What we once were Memoirs in the past tense That was then,when we were Hard to love and hard to let go A couple we once were Email: sibusisolubimbi@yahoo.com
