it
seems our love is always
going
through cycles
of
highs and lows
mountaintops
and valleys
I
wish we could find that
even
balance like the horizon
where
the sun rises and sets
maybe
our stars aren’t aligned
or maybe
we’re just wasting time

The nature of the beast, I am thinking...hopefully it's mostly even.😊
ReplyDeleteOh, now think how boring that marriage would be!!
ReplyDeleteA flat horizon is OK for a while, but soon we crave for the undulations of a hilly landscape.
ReplyDeleteMountaintops and valleys are tall and deep...I myself prefer more gentle undulations in a relationship. A nice poetic capture of relational cycles.
ReplyDeleteGreat ending. Though I do still enjoy the ups and downs, for contrast. :)
ReplyDeleteNice association of stars perhaps not being aligned with wasting time.
ReplyDeleteOne idea is that each person goes through their own cycles, so some of it is timing.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for reading and commenting.

A lot of searching questions to pare off certain distractions in relationships - which is a healthy thing to do!

Hope it's not wasting time at least.
