Untangle: A Poem

Turn a cold shoulder,

It's easier than being bolder,

I'll just walk a straight line,

You start out with hearts intertwined,

But then the fates weren't quite aligned,

So when it just all collapses,

You gotta face all the facts 'cause,

This wasn't quite how you thought it'd be,

But then you sit close to a warm fire,

And you wash off all the grime and mire,

So, your frigid heart begins to thaw,

And life once more puts you in awe,

There's still beauty to be seen,

And the grass here still is green,

You can release a heavy, relieved sigh,

Look back for a second, and then just wave goodbye.
