You And I Cannot Forever Remain Apart Poem by John Sensele

At a crossroad
With consequence questions to answer
Bothering to befriend or loathe the road
Our love lifts or else contract a conviction cancer

If obstination should prevail
Given your penchant for procrastination
Despite love lifting the veil
On the stark syllogism in the destination

Entertained and maintained at the fence
Between love life and death dormancy
Inherent and prevalent in the defence
Spelling freak fluency excised from the flattery fancy

Elevated into the art of reverie
At the level of innovation and implementation
Subjected to flavoured flattery
In a fact flotation fever and rendezvous rotation

Soaked and simulated in love
Measured and pleasured with freewill
Punctuated and situated far above
Conjecture carried and curried in the deal

Courage fails to support
The more weakness comes to the fore
Fearing to love, betting to drift into the fort
Where love becomes a victim before

You make up your mind
Whether to face reality or ache in the dream
In which ebullient emotions you choose to bind
Into the illusion you scream

To entertain
Despite the evidence shouting in your heart
To ascertain
You and I cannot remain forever apart.
