The calm after the storm
The waters have stilled
Time for reflection
Time to be filled
Too much time for some
Weighing heavily on their hands
A novel thing but unwelcome
As they wish they had more plans
Time together
Dramatic and fraught
Sped by, yes,
But them it overwrought
Yet they yearn for this time
As separated they are bereft
Unable to live apart
Unable thus to rest
The solution elusive
The outcome unknown
What to do for the best?
Best leave them alone.

The calm after the storm
The waters have stilled
Time for reflection
Time to be filled
Too much time for some
Weighing heavily on their hands
A novel thing but unwelcome
As they wish they had more plans
Time together
Dramatic and fraught
Sped by, yes,
But them it overwrought
Yet they yearn for this time
As separated they are bereft
Unable to live apart
Unable thus to rest
The solution elusive
The outcome unknown
What to do for the best?
Best leave them alone.
