Two Roads

There are two ways
this can go
we can steal our time together
until the six kids are grown
til they no longer complicate
leaving
we can kiss, and talk and love
in secret
for ten long years......

Or I can let go of you
though everything about you
feels right for me
though I want to see you
through your dark days
your endless nights
your shining summers and long winters.
I want to be there
when we're old
and you slip away....
do I walk away, or wait?
Forever gets closer every day......
