Our hearts are fragile yearning to be loved
An emotion too scary to think about
Every minute spent together gives peace within
A sense of security, not felt before
A second chance at life? love?
Taking one day at a time
No race to the finish line
The battered hearts laid open, exposed
We were like the opposite ends of a pole
So very different from each other
You, all black and white, Me, all shades of grey
You brought a sense of calm into my life
I added a bit of madness to yours
We started out on this journey quite by chance
No expectations no ground rules no well thought out plans
Life had caught us both unawares
Not long before things fell apart
Too different, too much effort
We fell through the cracks, unscathed
A little more bruised, scared
Facing each day carefully
Not knowing what to expect
Maybe and end? perhaps
