you captured my heart
over time
you chiseled into all my crevices
over time
you ripped me apart
over time
you tore me to pieces
over time
our hopes were dashed to pieces
over time
our dreams fell apart
a vast ocean brought us together
over time
a hurricane blew us apart
despite inclement weather
we seemed two birds of a feather
over time
in place of soaring together
chasing love became user friendly
instead of remaining creative art
over time
that mystical god giving love life
mysteriously allowing love
to be ripped and torn apart
over time
