i was made to believe
that we are tethered
by a strand of twisted fibers.
me - on this end
you - on the other
and we pulled,
like the string of a handmade telephone toy,
when we needed each other.
you told me once
you'll never let go.
and i was a gossamer
and a see-though
and you saw through me
(how could you? honestly?)
then one day,
you decided to cut the other end.
and i saw the thread collapsed (and we)
and our story that has never started, ended.
but i still think of you sometimes.
and when i do, i smile.

Aww, this was lovely <3
ReplyDeleteAnd I like the new lay out!
Thank you so much Purple one.
DeleteAnd I'm glad you liked it too.
I'm trying to figure out what's wrong with this layout. It doesn't look fixed . . . ? haha xx
we never forget the ones who saw through us, don't we?
ReplyDeletethe layout is adorable and so are you.. and thx for that lovely comment hun

i wish we could though, Lou. It doesn't seem right anymore.
DeleteThank you ♥
Wow, so pretty this poem.
ReplyDeleteIt has all gotten tangled up dear that's the problem. F is my friend (and I want him to remain just that) but it seems he doesn't and I'm in love with someone else to whom I confessed last year - and who avoided me after that. Now we're friends (?) and I'm too scared to make a move again.
Thank you so much for youe support. You have no idea how much it means to me.
Hugs*** on your blog now, babe.
DeleteAlso, the Shakespeare quote at the header is one of my favourites.
ReplyDeleteYes! It was from my old templates and I felt I just couldn't drop it down. His words were lovely.

ReplyDeleteThanks T! I'm glad it looks that way. I fell in love with the bunnies. They're too adorable to be ignored. ♥

ReplyDeleteStay well, my lovely chocolate bunny. <3
Aw Lili! Thank you so much for this I don't even know what to say. Love you my beautiful friend ♥
DeleteAww, I love the bittersweet and beautiful feel of this poem; it's very delicate. It's terribly hard to completely banish from our minds the memory of those who touched our hearts.
ReplyDeleteI am well. :) Very tired, but that's easily amended.
Ooh, I do like your new layout, haze! I hope you are doing well too. xxx
That is an EPIC poem! You're a brilliant poet, Haze. More? Pretty please? :p
ReplyDeleteThis new blogger layout is so confusing me. Not the layout of your blog, but the whole new blogger interface. Gah! I wish they could change it back!
LOVE LOVE LOVE your bunnies!
Wow, your dog must have been adorable! My neighbout was looking after a puppy that was pitbull/rottweiler/Dalmatian. She had the base rottie colouring, with little orange spots all over her. ADORABLE!
Mmmmm, musicians are good with their hands ;)
