How Simple

How simple it seemed.
How easy it could have gone.
But the road less traveled is nae so smooth.

How simple my mind had worked.
How minute were the motions.
And now my world has all consequence turned inward upon me.

How simple relationships were.
How fine the dates were to pass.
Now if I don't call I "don't care".

How simple my life had been.
And now so very complex.
It seemed to change without warning, seemed to fall apart and recollect into something larger.

My tattred wings still do work.
My shattered thoughst still do come.
I am still alive, I am working this through.

And it all seems simple again.

Tim.
Funny how the relationships that are to bring such great joy to our lives can so complicate them. Hang in there it will get easier.

Timothy, this is a powerful poem. Building from a simple position to now what has become a very complex relationship. Now you are where others like myself have gone;
to an area that changes our lives; leaving scars and teaching us what it means to love.
