Cupid has a funny sense of humor. <br />Shooting arrows after hearing rumors. <br />That two people sometimes seem alike. <br />Loving companions on a lonely night. <br /> <br />In the beginning, everything seems bliss. <br />The waiting hours for a single short kiss. <br />A need to be close and never far away. <br />A need to be loved each passing day. <br /> <br />Long talks on the phone well past midnight. <br />Longer walks in the day never out of sight. <br />The movies, the dinners and family as well. <br />Both finding a place where hearts will swell. <br /> <br />After awhile when the excitement has passed. <br />And it tends to be moving just a little too fast. <br />Smothered by the hour and needing space. <br />Hearts will go looking for some other place. <br /> <br />It is in these times that we tend to go away. <br />The one standing next to you always stays. <br />It is new and very refreshing to say the least. <br />To have freedom again and a moment of peace. <br /> <br />I should know, I have seen this a few times myself. <br />When you feel like your putting yourself on a shelf. <br />But, I always felt better knowing I was free. <br />It is painful at first but, in time you will see. <br /> <br />What we don’t want today, maybe tomorrow. <br />Oh how this can be a bitter pill to swallow. <br />But, take your time, take your time tonight. <br />This to will pass, when two hearts collide.<br /><br />Gulliver Gimble<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/when-two-hearts-collide/
