We built a beautiful relationship together
sturdy and effective but also appealing and bright
You watched the relationship
you had modeled ours after
crumble to the ground
and all the flaws revealed
We had both seen this before
but it was different this time
Maybe because our relationship
looked like theirs once had
But what we could have never seen
was all the cracks in their foundation
All the problems
they hid in the basement
relationships don't crumble in a day
they slowly erode away
each crack left unfilled
takes away the stability a little more
the rusted out center
of your parents relationship
left only an outside shell
a gust away from complete destruction
The outside doesn't matter
we aren't doomed for the same fate
just because we used the same bricks
its the upkeep that matters
To have a good relationship you have to fill those cracks
You have to work to make things stable
they don't always come naturally
but the results of working together are incredible
