The Poet: Ravenous 50 Poems Challenge
Caught up in the buzz of life
We ended up at opposite ends
Once before we were in each other's arms
But now it is all pretend
I lost track of precious time
You lost track of love
Our differences finally took
What we kept hidden above
Memories gained what was gone
And laughter we shared was trapped
From the days we promised to forever keep
Fell between our laps
Now, there is no more fun and games
And the bond we shared is lost
What's left between our weary lives
Is a stranger who paid the cost.
