    CONFLICTING VIBES

    Conflict

    laughter filled nights

    serious days

    comedic acts

    dramatic plays

    i move out

    you walk in

    the ending

    of our beginning

    sending

    conflicting vibes

    let us give it one more try

    hello

    goodbye

    witnessing the rising

    of the setting sun

    walking into our destiny

    away from destiny we run

    defining time when yesterday ends

    today beginning as lovers

    tomorrow wanting  to be friends

    can friends ever be lovers

    if we pretend

    to ignore the conflicting vibes

    inside of us

    enjoying the amusement of the park

    with bemusement

    casually ignoring the darkness of our hearts

    living love on a roller coaster

    of love so new

    ending 

    when we are beginning

    yet not through

    our aurora borealis

    actually a will o the wisp

    once celestial brightness

    now a blighted light flickering

    in the ghostly mist

    tear stained pillows

    once saturated with the salty sweat

    of our shared passion

    now we ration

    emotion

    downsize

    devotion

    speaking of getting away

    yet giving into the notion

    of living separate but equal lives

    husband and wife in name only

    sleeping together

    yet forever lonely

    two distant islands joined only

    by our tears forming a bitter stream

    what does it all mean

    i say love is sweet

    you say it is rather sour

    both powerless

    yet in need of power

    a king and a queen

    of separate countries

    with no discernable populations

    truth becoming insinuations

    facts forming into factless abominations

    until a once beautiful situation

    now permanently resides

    within the conflicting vibes

    inside of us

    as you and i wave a fond farwell

    to trust
