Things Change
They started off with an attitude that looked like unclouded blue skies
But after a few years or so they started to see that their attitude had changed to a dusty rugged road
With no apparent reason as to why
Their smiles had turned into a smirk of disdain
And the words were as few as if saying “Hello” stirred pain and was a strain
So they both begun to complain
“You don’t do this”
“And you don’t do that
“I’m doing my best”
“Well your best seems less”
“Less than what”
“Whatever is considered your best”
Another year passed and they started talking more
Eating together and well, dating. They were married
But the routine had created a riff
He started joking more and she started laughing more
Their relationship was no longer at the edge of a cliff
They danced in the living room in candle light shadows
And they bathed together in rose peddled water
They hugged with an immense amount of gratitude
Without an interlude what they rekindled could not be misconstrued
His eyes were now all aglow
And her eyes sparkled now than ever before
And they both believed that only love has the power to restore.
