Dividing Reins

Feedback Please

Shall we two, together, into the saddle?

Riding our destinies out in parallel

Mounting, ever forward unto battle

Binding, entwining, as though in chapel?

What look you give, what glance we share

The sun’s dying rays, catching in your hair.

No distance too great to slow the hooves

Galloping, incessant, towards our unison.

What grave sacrifices does this behoove?

When joining, all that lies in possession.

It can not be, for all that dreams can wonder

Alas, never so, for we are torn asunder.
