We cling to each other for brief moments
Too brief and too far apart
Unrelenting need forcing us together
The pendulum of our lives
Tearing us in different directions
No viable solution in sight
We grasp at the precious little we can
Hold it close to our hearts
Until the next pass
My soul cries in pain!
