Want Not, But Ask Why

Want not to say goodbye

Be decisive and ask why

A temple closed in your mind's eye

Met halfway between spider and fly


A breach of silence spells the end

Parts the door to your friend

Maybe they, a helping hand will lend

To the broken fences mend


The trust is broken, like your heart

The new beginnings will not restart

Communication torn forever apart

One last item in the cart


A destiny that arrives too late

The twisted wind doesn't promise fate

Surrendered love and absorbed hate

Opportunity to close the gate


Swinging around in your mind

The rarest gift, the precious find

Soon again, your time unwind

Fate rewards you with a bind


Want not to say hello

But ask why the seasons come and go

The sidewinder slithers to and fro

Your decision has made it so
