Simple Solution

- off the flash, purge more than a poem maybe

 

It could have been so easy

Resolved without fanfare

No need for public applause

Could have kept the odes, the sonnets

Roses or lilacs were no requirement

Candy is consumed and then forgotten

Words spoken to friends

Could have been voiced elsewhere

Turned into conversation, discussion

Resolution the goal

It would have been so easy

Simplistic really

If you’d only spoken to me

People including ourselves sometimes do make things worse then they
need to be. Half the time it's the ones who you see all day who avoid
you so that they may talk about you to others. Then everyone else
sees the situation as their problem also and tries to make it right. I
love how this puts all of that fustration into a bottle.

There is a book called the Five Love Languages, that talks about how different people have different languages when it comes to love. I had picked up a couple of copies of it, one for myself and one for the ex (before she was the ex). I read my copy. She never looked at her copy. It talks about the whole falling in love process, where we have a tendency to be what the other person wants us to be. After a period of time, we resort to ourselves. Often, this can leave both partners wondering just who they are with - this new person not being the one they fell in love with. This is the point where the decision needs to be made if there is enough love remaining to work on the relationship - with both sides. One person cannot do it alone. If they do, they may find that part of the problem is that they do not speak the same language of love. What means "I love you" to one person may not cut it with the other (and vice versa). It is not easy work, but it is possible if both sides are willing - that they can learn how "I love you" can be shown so the other understands. They have a quiz to determine your love language, and you can share that with each other. This looks to be a case where possibly two people simply had different languages, or there could have been more beneath the surface. It is just what stood out to me, and I really like what the book talks about - so yeah, I am plugging it in another review (I have in a few here and there - lol).
