MY WIFE: MY LOVER, MY SOUL MATE, MY BEST FRIEND
Once upon a time, we took walks in the park,
Collected sea shells on the beach,
Now, we're out of touch, out of reach.
Once upon a time, we cuddled in bed,
Created two beautiful kids,
Now I'm treated as if I were dead.
Once upon a time, we kissed as if there were no tomorrow,
Made a public display of our love for one another,
Now I peer into your eyes and see a look of sorrow.
Was it something I did, something I said,
Did I act insensitive toward you,
Was I horrible in bed?
Please help me to help you,
Because I want you back,
Can we renew our vows,
Go on a romantic trip?
Let's get back on track.

Poetry: More than just friends
by Dylan Ehle
Four Colors:
They were parting ways at the end of high school
Ten long years ago
They knew their friendship would never be
Passionate friends is what we are.
Laughter and tears are what brought us here.
Naturally and consistently we followed
You Are More Than A Friend, to me...
You are much more than
a friend to me,
but I have found no words
to express how I feel.
Wouldn't it be so very romantic
If we bemoaned our lack of lovers
Discussed together our quests so frantic
To solve
by Ilyan Theara
I use to
I use to think of you as a sister
Your heart always opened for everyone to abuse
Dreaming of beautiful ideals yet
