Oh how I long
for a romantic song
Not
about co-dependence and
lack of boundary keeping.
Make it mainstream
With thoughts for the teens
To ponder
Perseverate
And perhaps inspire change.
Communication and
owning what’s yours
Admitting a wrong
and forgiving.
A new world will begin
One we wish we lived in
But never realized it’s ours
for the making.
