When Realization Comes (Poetry)

Posted by Shani Greene-Dwodell on May 18, 2010 at 12:43 AM

When realization comes

neither you or I

have the capacity

of hearing or understanding

there are no more

words to be spoken

so we weather the storm

until the river begins to calm

slow and steady

silence whispers

pearls of wisdom

in our ear

saying if the love

was ever so true

as the connection

between me and you

no simple storm will do

to break the life line

that was built for us two

the bond may get weak

but it will never break

the love may change

but even then

it remains the same

When realization comes
