When It Breaks

You broke your promises

I broke mine too

And the incandescent light of love

that I was so sure of

dimmed and changed.


That unbreakable thing

that I held and knew

my heart and soul

was suddenly something else

I still knew what it was

but it wasn't the same.


We mean what we say

when we say them they are true

but we forget to think in multi time zones

we get what we want

but it may not be

what we want when we get it

because we're not who we were

when we get to where we want

it may even be better

just not the same.


nothing finishes, nothing ends

it changes and grows

"we" becomes who we are

we're not children

we are men
