A Hollow Foundation

 


Relationships last for numerous reasons

Even those built on hollow foundations

Survive through feats of desperation

Afraid to let go and watch it all 

Just slip away into the tides downfall

Amidst cheers and jeers the siren call

Thoughts of love washed away

hiding evidence of the fray

In platitudes spiteful looks betray

Wishing for respite while waiting for the end

Calling secret meetings with a special “friend”

Exhausted from the endless game of pretend
