After The Break - No Sustainable Relationship

Relationships 

like life, are fragile. 

They can be broken at any moment. 

 

Relationships 

like eggshells, 

have strength under pressure 

but break when pierced. 

 

Relationships 

like wind, 

can tornado into destruction

or 

comfort a body when just a breeze. 

 

Relationships

like unexpected storms, 

are able to flood without a moments notice 

or 

nourish growth when delivered gently.

 

Relationships 

like flowers, 

can ooze a person’s nose into ecstasy,

or 

brighten a mind with their beauty. 

 

Relationships

like waves,

in a rush of water 

may deliver untold treasures without notice, 

or carry away everything you own. 

 

Relationships

like humans, 

are surprises, 

who reveal joy without expectation,

or

when unwrapped, reveal a darker side 

unleashed without warning.

 

Relationships

like humor, 

explode a face into happy laughter. 

 

Relationships

like tears, 

eyes well up with emotional waterfalls

with cried rivers 

of unexpected pain or joy.

 

Relationships

like bubbles, 

are more fragile than eggs, 

as beautiful as rainbows, 

lighter than air pushed on gentle breezes, 

finite as the least moment of time, 

memorable as eternity, 

complete as only a circled orb can be. 

 

Bubbles remain whole 

because 

they attach with trust 

and each and every molecule 

will hold onto every other molecule with equal force and faith. 

They believe in their connectivity. 

They have faith in each other.  

 

Relationships are all these things, and more.

Without these two qualities: 

trust and belief, 

no relationship will sustain itself. 

 

Thank you. I am grateful for your visit.

 

'After The Break' refers to a relationship that could not support its own weight.

Well written Andy. Your words mirror the souls of many that struggle with expression. Thank you for sharing what we feel but cannot pen.
