Circles

Inquisitive and thoughtful,
she was the challenge he'd been waiting for;
a reminder that creativity runs deep like secrets.
Dark eyed dreamers; they were a dangerous pair,
Q next to U scribbled out on paper.

They stop / they go / they're done.

Go back to the place we knew before /
retrace our steps to the basement door,
I'll ask you if the rain still makes you smile.

Like so much time that we spent in the fall /
it put color in our cheeks while the air turned cold,
preceding what became our bitter end.

Round in circles - let's start over,
round in circles - lets start over.

Unanswered questions would be the only thing to stop them now.
He was the poet while she was the muse,
but she had a pen that she knew how to use,
with a touch of redemption, a hint of elation;
a recipe for disaster.

Go back to the place we knew before /
retrace our steps to the basement door,
I'll ask you if the rain still makes you smile.

Like so much time that we spent in the fall /
it put color in our cheeks while the air turned cold,
preceding what became our bitter end.

Let this be a lesson to us all.

Round in circles - let's start over.
Round in circles - lets start over.
