Futility

Love and peace- we have them both
but far off in the distance, wind is blowing
Quick! bolt the door before it blows in
don't let it disrupt this fragile beauty...
we shut ourselves off from the world
and huddled together, silent and still
forgetting in the bliss of each other's arms
that we had left the window open
the wind drew closer
i could hear it rustling the trees outside
i noticed the window and ran to shut it
but it was too late
the wind came rushing through the open panes
it sailed right over my head and i thought we were safe
then i turned to see your hair ruffled-
you'd been hit.
in our attempt to keep things static
we ended up with things worse
now part of the you i love so much
is gone--------
part of the wind i missed
because i avoided it.
