Lingering silences overshadow clouded conversation, And I understood that being "worse-off" might be a gift-- Blessing in disguise, Things happen for a reason. Amid Hallmark sentiments and lovestruck handwriting, shipped through Post Offices made for "Expressed" mail and cheap gas station postcards, Unrehearsed love songs develop faster than the three-year-old 35mm images which never left my camera's shutter, for whatever reason. Maybe for us, the price was too costly for a shot of happiness. I think to have end up framed in lovestuck poses on gas station postcards with Hallmark sentiments underneath in lovestruck writing, would have been more appropriate. Next to over-the-counter remedies with empty promises, Across from dream-filled magazines of beautiful relationships and lives, All more expensive than our twenty-five cent image on cheap paper which, by our standards, Still would feel too costly to be worth acquiring, or keeping. |
