Negative Poles

I--      love
			                     	you	  still
				          but I 	    can see
		          That our paths		  have gone awry
		     Our parallels				   have turned to Ys
	 And I do not know					how to say goodbye
                                            and so I won’t.


 				       Oil and	    water
			         emul---		        sified
		       have come				   apart
	           like cur					       dled cream;
	      Fision							      has split
                                              the nucleus.

				     I only	              hope
			     our flight		         will stop
	   While you still seem		             a part of me;
       If our limit is      					       not infinity
   I at least								      will know where
to											                  reach
                                                 for you

Barbara Boyd January 13, 2014 at 11:42 AM Karen- this poem is awesome. we get so close to someone then so very far and I always wonder why. I am not sure I have any imagination when it comes to renewing a marriage. I just let it go downhill. barbarboyd Karen Ruff January 13, 2014 at 4:38 PM Thanks, Barbara. I appreciate the support.
