Star crossed, soul mates, kismet
cliches!
Meaningless fiction - the foundation
found only on screen...
Then I saw you!
Standing tall and strong
like a century of old-
protecting your child.
We two - Strangers ...
planes passing in flight.
Your gaze pierced
deep into my soul.
Dear Gods or Goddesses please be kind
keep this man out of reach!
No such luck
cosmic joke...
our sons - best friends...
I carpool with your wife.
no wonder she kept you hid.
You became a part of my life,
so near and yet so far...
stolen conversations -
"what if"...
I live for an occasional hug
A kiss on the forehead.
I share with you
what I never shared with the ex...
Secrets, fears,
food from my plate!
We covet what will never be...
I curse the stars
that crossed our paths.
Yet-
"The fault lies not in the stars
...but in ourselves."
Last line is Shakespeare..
