Do you remember old relationships?

 


Old Relationships


Like two priceless ships passing in humanities deep green seas


Did you see from your captain's deck


Someone special sailing nearby

Whilst guiding your old wreck


Did your bows touched briefly and intimately

Before in a blaze of harsh words 


Into the misty green jealous seas, you both swept 

 

Does your now jaded heart as you pause in moments of solitude and remember them

Sometimes miss a beat 


Or has it deemed their name unworthy and marked it as one to forget 


For their love for you wasn't strong enough but weak


Copyright John Duffy


Old relationships, do they leave an impression? 


Do you sometimes think of that particular person?
