Roundabout

Round and round we spin.

I’m dizzy and disoriented

from swirling emotions that

leave me wanting to hold onto your hand.

 

Back and forth words are spoken.

Suspicions and wondering

twist our love into a ball of

turmoil that is trying to unravel.

 

Over and over we dance to the same song.

Rhythms of broken hearts

beat like raindrops against

the glass walls of our souls.

 

Up and down our lives rise and fall.

Days will be sunny or stormy

with clearing skies or thunderclouds that

build to a towering mountain of despair.

 

Trust each other and believe in us.

Cast the doubts and fears out to sea

where they will sink to the bottom of the ocean floor

to live amongst the wreckage that lies below.
