We thank our lucky stars lest they cross us
part ways with a satisfied smile
this is how we’ve come to love.
Go through the motions with feeling
try to make it nice
no expectations no disappointments.
If we give this much and no more
we have done our best
no promises broken no one gets hurt.
We settle for this much of each other
make up with heat what we lack in warmth
it is an offering we can afford.
