The Shape Of Love

Love takes on many forms,
And shapes as time goes on.
First, there’s the magic,
You have the energy to talk
until dawn.
Then, the next step follows.
Sheltered under one roof,
So happy now,
But, will begin to fade into
The passing winds,
Of your tomorrows.
Still in love,
You forge ahead.
Some vows are spoken,
Now your wed.
Officially now, a United team.
The light that had faded,
Again is to beam.
The days go on,
Turn into years.
Both moving in opposite directions,
Chasing down , dreams and careers.
Then, Happiness returns for
Just a while,
As you both gaze at the face
Of your firstborn child.
Then, chaos swallows most of the glee.
Both of you fondly remember,
The days of just you and me.
Days go by quickly, time gets lost.
Your relationship begins to pay the cost.
You argue about everything,
Big and small.
More and more, out of love you fall.
Both of you wondering,
About your past choice.
Thoughts of divorce,
You begin to voice.
Papers are signed, and items
divided.
Still you reminisce about your days United.
A short time passes.
You look into his eyes.
That’s when you truly begin to realize.
Love may temporarily elude you.
It may even attempt to escape.
This is the very nature of love.
It molds our hearts.
As we change, so does loves
evolving shape.
