To be written into the script with such clarity. Hmmm, not sure if that is good or bad.

probably not good....:)
thank you,KL
This could be a positive. When I read this, I thought this could be about anything. I read "you" as not a physical creation, but as the poetical muse that has been with us since birth. A little dramatic on my end, but oh well. Another great write. CD

Things unsaid, we think we don't have to, but we do.
To be someone's everything, what a great expectation.

Funny how the things we assume written
are never written
or spoken
they are assumed
once that conclusion is reached
we remind ourselves to write them
because they have taken place in our soul ......

This is like a depth charge, exploding when it reaches 1,000 feet of depth. Wow!

That circle , how it winds around our finger in Golden bliss, runs around our heads in flowery dreams, creeps around our heart in disguise, and hangs so heavy around our necks until we are gone....only to blow around and begin again...hmmmmmmm... do any ever stray?

Checks off all the boxes--taut and tight, finely executed wordplay, just the right tone. End stop, indeed.
