Destiny of a Duet

Destiny of a Duet

 

Exquisitely tuned in soul and mind,

yet just one single heart was blind,

blinkered and focused on the past;

a duet destined not to last.

 

Dismissing new romantic gains,

instead, replaying old refrains,

seeking ease from life’s old song,

new melodies could ne’er belong.

 

A staff of pain once firmly planted,

newly twisted, words are slanted.

Communications unreturned

smother embers slowly burned.

 

Fondness once afforded lenience,

now busy life breeds inconvenience,

and a solemn pledge of friends forever,

slowly fades to almost never.

 

Silence fills life’s empty hall,

and brings the final curtain call.
