The Red Ribbon

 There’s a red ribbon that tied us up together
 Once so gracefully
 Like a spell that lead us to one another, bewitched 
 
 Sometimes, our eyes dipping into the truthful but scary sensations
 Of seeing itself for the first time -
 Like a person holding a mirror after war,
 Have summoned demons of our fears and fantasies
 Back to a charming but burdened reality
 
 Other times our bodies were upside down
 Facing opposite directions
 About to detach from our special condition
 
 I have sometimes tried to cut the tie
 And I've witnessed you doing the same
 
 But don’t fear my friend, one day the red ribbon will fly away!
 It will untangle our aching and unrested souls
 And capture another pair of silly doomed lovers
 With the illusion of a red silky dream
