How long can we suspend
Choosing whether to mend it
Or end it
How long do we intend to go on like this?
We’ve been in a downtrend
Since the time we became boyfriend and girlfriend
It feels…
It’s like we ascended this mountain of a relationship
But now we’ve descended to the bottom
So how long do we intend
To do anything but pretend,
That things will be amended
Maybe next weekend we’ll regret it
But we might just be better off friends…
How long can we suspend
Choosing whether to mend or end?
Both tend to bring me to tears
And send me to my place of fears.

The 12th of 12 poems about my relationship frustrations. I wanted to do another experimental piece by using a theme of words rhyming with "end" in a poem about what I thought was surely going to be our end.
