End of the Affair

What an experience!

Rare soul encounter,

Two became one in spirit

Thought passion dance

Culinary laughter

Adventure discovery

Stillness care touch

And yes love.

Blended close

Respectful aspiring

Inspiring insightful

And then it ended,

As affairs do most times,

Responsibilities suffer intrude,

Respectfulness threatened,

No blame just boldness-less.

So appearances do matter

As reflections caught

In funhouse mirrors,

Distorted ripple views,

Captured by those who safe -

Not saved – collect as pledges

To unfilled dream promises,

Written on fragile parchment.

With dull smiles they approve,

In gray formless garments,

Exhort adherence to order,

Sanity not sanctity,

Promote journeys on placid seas

Absent storm cresting waves

That rise one to new heights,

Plunge to new depths.

Pity when affairs end,

Especially if dreams

So rarely experienced

Go unrealized in life.
