We're more like cyclists
Pedaling away, careful not to hit
I go downhill while you struggle uphill
Me, on the sidewalk
You, cut through the grass
We're similar to evolution
Changing slowly
Don't know our origin, don't know what we've become
Me, the lost link
You, the new breed
We are hands and feet
Creating as easily as we destroy
One builds love while the other kicks it down
You, me
We've come full circle

to give love or destruction is a choice we all have to make daily...like the bike imagery, it works and plays off the circle on multiple levels...
ReplyDeleteI like the metaphor here and the battle of back and forth, much enjoyed ~ Rose
ReplyDeleteI love all the contrasts in this. It's heartbreaking and at the same time unflinching: a relationship that is what it is...
