what it took
I can't forget
sometimes we need
the single space
to double
for clarity
and we called a truce
only to find
what we were looking
for
slip me your cards
i'll shuffle them
so we can both lend
each other the hand
we were dealt
i feel your smile
sneak up on my own
and we share
what we weren't able
to fake before
harmony
on a carousel
i'll save you a seat
if you bring me
to safety
cover me from GOD's tears
run with me
little people in plastic
perform
pitter patter
splashing our hearts
with what we've known
to be true
collect my thoughts
and divide your own
this study we dust
from broken pieces
and torn pages
from a time
we both misunderstood
it took time
maybe we needed
to miss a year
to find what's worth
living for

Unfortunately, this does not fit in Writing Tips. I would be very happy if you would publish it to Culture Haven instead.
