Loves and Dreams

Loves and dreams break for reasons
glasses for resonance
our weaknesses for rising voices
and tunes for divided tones
Queens derive their deeds from swings
princes from addictions 
Apologies lose themselves in heartbreak
They take a day to come back 
a week to break eternally
A lifetime for all others 
And lose simplicity
in understanding
the rest of us
