NEVER THOUGHT

Just As I
Never Thought
The Stars
Would Fall From the sky
The Sun Would Come
To Burn The Moon
The Pacific and Atlantic
Would Run Dry
I Never Thought
I’d Be Without You
&
You Without I

Ah, but you were!

When I wanted you ... when I needed you ... where were you?

Not here, maybe there ... with him?

The ache of wanting lives with me - will die with me. goodbye.

Sadness is a feeling, not a word.

Reminiscent of John Donne!

A bit tricky. Not unlike the poetics of the great Metaphysical poet John Donne, there is a comparison between the great powers of nature and the emotional life –especially that of lovers, sub division –separation of lovers. The Physical events never happened. The lover thought that just like in nature, their love could never break. BUT, unlike nature there is a surprise, and the implied complaint - their love did break. Thus the past tense: I thought we could not be alone, and the implied conclusion: but now I know better. I’d call this one an immediate classic.

Love's nightmare...

Chance of a breakup - an impossible thought. Then caught up in a maritial nightmare ~ I without you - You without I.

So, since those first few events never happened

Does that mean the relationship holds;

Or while those first few events never happened

Luck was exhausted on the relationship holding?
