...and we got close
Wedding bell close
We crushed glass with toes
Wearing dashiki robes
Jumping brooms, we had
Chemistry ala Breaking Bad
We stored our energy
In a musical synergy
Our thoughts were a galaxy
Our plot providing ataraxy
The Moon and Sun became one visual
Over our artisan honeymoon sygyzial
Where we aligned in a lyrical
Song storm, forming a Miracle
But from out of that cloud
Our thunder became too loud
Outrageous hormones and heart
Ripped apart stages designed for art
And we stopped building
And we stopped yielding
And we got close
Close to rewriting prose
but the musicians froze
And we canceled all the shows
And let no man put asunder
The futility of blame and blunder
When sorting through the rubble
We found clues of potential trouble
You were easily persuaded
I was easily elated
We were eager to join
Scripture scripts for our loins
and we judged Others when double dating
Convinced we would last past the mating
and other young couples would 'poof '
But we ended so fast, that our only proof
Of even having an efficacious Union
Was the Hierarchy extruded through our collusion
We had Her together
And our regal Iridescence did tether
Our directions, though separate,
Leading us back to our Advocate
To watch and protect Her light
despite our seven year fight
None of that matters now
I just want Her smile....
No fancy words really needed
I'd like every unsavory word deleted
Because yes, we lost the thrill of Us
But gaining still a Plus in the minus
And She'll multiply our perspicacious thoughts
In time, dividing our pertinacious noughts
If and only If = we conquer our broken bonds
for Her sake, we listen as Heaven responds
To our plea that She be Wise and Healthy
And stay in clichés, being Beautiful and Wealthy
