Unity
Missed Connections in Lawrence
I hold your hand
I understand the pain within
It’s a sin
To fear so much
Throughout time
Crossing this line between us
I know we’re one in the same
And we’ll go back
To being one
Once again
Galaxies will collide
Nebulas die
Still I can’t wait
For that moment
To be with you again
Her Two Cents
This poem totally reminded me of Romeo and Juliet! Of course, dangerous, illicit love is a common theme in poems, stories, and films and one that people just can’t seem to get enough of (if the upcoming release of yet another R&J movie is any indication). Prokofiev’s piece from the ballet version of the story is beautiful, light, and only gently hints at the sadness to come.
