Feelings rule the heart


I would have said no if I could

I battled with you

I said I am done

with this bizarre situation

you said no

passions rule

I said no

but I was not able to hold out

which you knew would happen

you had your way

and left satisfied

with so little

but I did feel better

I was able to go on

with this bizarre situation

thinkng it would get better some time

I dont ask or expect

that we be together

when someone elses needs intervene

we are essentially very civilized

if our being together upsets people

we will refrain

we will trust

that considering everyones feelings

is best when you are old

and the kids are all here

and the hearts blood does not pulse

as it used to

we can wait

for what seems like

forever if necessary

until this passion

can be allowed to burn

without scorching those

who are warmed by

our more robust fires

Very nice, but it sounds so sad. I spoke to Raymond. He called to invite me to a rehearsal next week. I have to see how my week goes, but I will definitely go one night to rehearsal. That was a nice surprise!
