Each second love contains you…
But there’s not much room anymore
Two became a crowd
Respect dwindled, escaped “poof” from the sides
Out back, evaporated like smoke
Left behind pallid staleness
Faithfully wore indigo trench
Enclosed your effects about me
Guided candles lit to arrhythmia
Shines for you but…
Seems time leaves paths, moves on
Paves a road somewhere else
So I mourn artic truth
Lately the only available body parts
are unintentional spines
Believe we rode the chassis till
the wheels fell off but now things
gotta change tween us
Build…build new spaces, bring
baggage, analyze then remove content
unneeded or leave it, resign to entertain
regret, remorse over each shoulder, walk papers
because we’ve already met
With a finger on the pulse of finality
let us retreat that we should ponder
when a small room once was but wasn’t...
too crowded

Very thought provoking in the sense I find myself remembering when...and memories of one maybe should I say not so kind. And one part sticks out to me here in these lines........
