BROKEN VOWS

Do we reach a point of no return
Where things must change as the seasons do?
Or do we live on the dreams we knew
In the past to dwell upon our youth?

Some forget that middle line
When we may be neither here nor there
Torn between the need to care
And a life ahead that we might share

To push aside what we once had
Yet still to love the seeds we've sown
We must let go the love that flowed
Yet hold on with all out strength

Caught up with the need to go
And the tie that binds in what we reap
Where the past and future meet
We stand between so undecided and incomplete
