rut

you and I been a long time, wasting our time, on ourselves
we've been out sendin' glances, warm romances, to someone else
all the time, times been passin', with little passion
with the one we hold

can you feel the cold?
it sure has gotten old
maybe someday we'll get bold
and fold this hand

I told you that I loved you
you said that you loved me too
but now we're through

one of us must show some spine
and leave behind
this masquerade

we only find ourselves hatin'
commiseratin'
our charade

let us both drink from the cup
and admit we must breakup

maybe we'll find the love

This is a really well written poem. I enjoyed reading it even though it was a little sad. So true of some relationships though. Thanks for sharing.
