The Ways We've Yet To Go

In the tepid evening air, he stares

Through the words that have just been shared. 

And she too sits and thinks alone

Of how they'll be here onward.

 

For the love of one and two to be

Need not carry out symphonically. 

Her life will be much more than he,

And he will be his own. 

 

The lives that we pray we lead

Will sooner or later unfold. 

But perhaps they won't always be

In the ways that we had told. 

 

But for now, we can only sit unknowing,

On this day we won't remember. 

And be numb to the course we've set upon

In a love so frought and tender.
