Your presence just a picture frozen in my mind
Attracted by your tale of loneliness; for all of us a common design
Your curiosity is aroused as if I am just a few blocks away
Geography dictates across many lifetimes our unfulfilled dreams will ultimately pay.


Photographs alone cannot adequately relate the tale
Of missed opportunities that make our future expectations appear colorless and pale
Vintage eyes of blue search continuously across the waves
Forgetting at times that common agreements of necessity alone; a relationship can save.


Frozen in the seasons of tradition we follow a general course
Fighting the ongoing siege of reality; our life dominated admission of remorse
A half eaten plate of happiness we push it gently aside
Holding on to our old proven convictions; allowing stubbornness to remain our guide.


Convenience is our good luck charm; held closely under lock and key
We want our success stories; after long periods of emotional turmoil; to turn out quite easily
Day after day we resume our quest looking for a compatable spark
Nothing ever comes without difficulty to any one of us involved in mutual affairs of the heart.
