Tension

Only longing to be loosed
Affection remembered
While trust dismembered
Pass by.
These feelings boost.

Wonder
If either will break the wall
Or if there's even a thought
To alter the plot
Will both trample under
And neither answer the call?

A smile from the middle
An avoided glance from the side
The heart twists
For when both exist
It seems neither can abide

Remember the water's Rush
And the goal to make it hush.
Think of the sound that everyone heard
Be careful to let out a word.

What to think?
What to say?
Should it stay this way?

What to do?
What to hope?
Or just find ways to cope.

Always tension before a break
And should neither side choose to make
Amends

Now must accept that the thread is snipped
Neither needle is equipped

To pull closed the space
The trimmings displace

With all hope for fixing gone,

Both begin to erase.
