Beauty Beyond Them
Who put the poison in our relationship,
the bitter cold and killing poison in our love?
Perhaps we unknowingly poisoned each other, slowly,
carelessly, needlessly, growing a taste for the
misfortune and the pain, uncaring, selfish and
greedy. No tolerance, no compassion, no romance,
unable to leave, not wanting to stay, running away
from our selves once more to nowhere. Unable to face
the beauty lies beyond reality. We must face
our realities before we can see the beauty beyond them.
P. J. Campise
