"Almost Final" 5/13/90

It was all said and done!
But was it really?
Something was still missing---
As there was a feeling that this was not final
Despite how much they told themselves and others.
They had it all for a brief time---
But it still amazed us
On how quickly it all turned.
It was overnight,
When they decided to end-it-all.
Causing the people close to them
To wander what went wrong---so quickly.
I guess we will never know their reasoning behind it all
Since we were not directly involved.
Look at them now,
Sitting so quietly staring at each other across the room.
How sorry we feel for the two of them,
And the look of sadness in their eyes
Will haunt us for a longtime.
Suddenly without a moment's notice,
They rose from their chairs and ran into each other's arms,
They embraced and with tears rolling from their eyes together saying,
"Forgive me, honey! I still and wlll always love you!"
