Some stories last forever
with fairy tale happy endings,
leaving the readers with a sigh
Ours was written
in scribbles and question marks,
leaving them wondering why
There are chapters
I would have wished deleted,
instead I read and cried
Perhaps a re-write
could be possible,
are you willing to try?
When you’re ready
to re-enact our parts
I’ll be standing by

Sounds a lot like life, that book!
I know, it sure does, doesn’t it, George? Thanks for stopping by and have a great evening! 🙂
I just love the way you write 😉
Thanks so much, Ericka, you made my day and your encouragement keeps me writing! 🙂 xx
Complicated things, relationships. (Or so I’ve read. 😉 )
Yes, they are, but they can be exciting, too! 🙂
Yes Lauren! I can see this one well and your gorgeous words made me sigh big!! HBL XX❤

Thanks so much, Diane, and I’m glad those lines came to mind. I’m sure many can relate (unfortunately) :)…Sending you many hugs, my friend! xo
Aha, look at you with the metaphors!! Love it, Lauren 🙂 ❤
I learn from the best 🙂 and think of you often when I’m really trying to dig deep, metaphorically speaking, Christy! Hugs! ♥
You’re so kind, Lauren! Hugs back for your day ❤

Thanks so much for your kind comment and I’ll be over your way soon, too! 🙂
Wow!
I can relate to this very much, in a certain way
Beautiful writing Lauren
Makes a lot of sense
I like the distinction between a fairytale story and one with question marks… that’s the difference between fantasy and reality.
Although it all begins with a fantasy, until life suddenly wakes one up from the dream!
Love this very much!
Thumbs up Lauren!
Aww…thanks very much for your insightful comment, Eve! I really appreciate it and you taking the time! xxx
