THE DIVIDING LINE

Folder: 
THE DRUNKENING

 

I was jealous

when I saw you

with him

 

but then 

you were jealous

when you saw me

with her.

 

The dividing line

remained

firmly entrenched

 

and there was little

either of us could do

to make it right.

 

You see,

destiny likes

to play cruel jokes

 

and we never understood

we have become mere pawns

although we actually do

pull our own strings.
