Love and War

When all allegations

And complaints,

Ended.

When you had said,

What you could have.

And I said,

What I could. 

When there was no answer to

"What now?"

In that moment of utter silence,

Where our lives could have taken 

Just about any path...

Standing on that fork,

I realised

What we have is special.

In that state of torn stillness,

It dawned on me

What the proverbial Love and war is all about.

Even as my heart bled,

I vowed to my undefeated self-

I will not accept defeat.

Not in war

And definitely not in Love.
