SLIPPING AND SLIDING

You slipped into me

I slipped into you

We shared ups and downs

We slid on the slippery slopes of the roads we must tread,

Me, the undulated path called life

You, the ice covered road to providing happiness

We fell and hurt ourselves it seemed a few years ago for the last time

But today

We have recovered from the bruises so...........

We have restarted the work on keeping our feet on the ground

And our paths have crossed again

You, stronger than ever

Me, the same

So lets make this crossroad in our life work this time

Let the solid, flat ground keep us stable and focused..............

And maybe, just maybe our close cousins lust and logic

Will work more with us this time dear love

Then we can realise true happiness once again
