Reconciliation

And the water is running down,
they aren't tears this time.
They're warm and sweet tasting.

And they both said

"I love you."

Let's try this, she thought.

Let's try working through,
not running away.

Let's try forgiving,
she said.

Let's try loving,
she said.

Don't be selfish,
She told herself.

Take a little more,
she wanted to tell him.

Not giving up,
not giving in,

But this could be love.
easy
hard
bitter
sweet


love.
