I don't own Bones

Please enjoy!


Ours was a romance of epic proportion

Swollen with years of emotional torsion

Denied and ignored and downright refused

Then hurt and replaced and painfully bruised

Hundreds of chances to spark and catch light

Countless opportunity to lift and take flight

Through years of kinship – you were the closest to me

Yet STILL I stubbornly refused to believe

And then came a woman so close to perfection

In whom I could see your blatant affection

It hurt me so deeply yet' was my own failing

Watching you both was so self assailing

Then, "never" I though, "could we ever rekindle"

I felt that for sure my "Heart" you had swindled

For what was once lit was reduced to mere ash

Never to burn again – ne'er to rehash

To be buried in a graveyard of past recollections

Of bickering, banter and hidden affections

Of what once was and could never now be

Of what still remains the dearest to me

Memories of your sermons on love and romance

They mocked me in slumber, "You squandered your chance!"

Melancholy set in - clouds heavy with rain

As much as I tried – I couldn't "logic" the pain

Then as if thrown by the tides of opposing oceans

Heartbreaking sadness and elated emotions

With news of your split I was dragged from the shore

But nothing about "us then" was like "us before"

You were angry – but I got your hurt point of view

I determined to prove my love for you

So we braved the waves and battled the spray

I wondered at times if we'd recover ok

I prayed to a God who I don't believe true

A second hand faith like reverse déjà vu

Like the time that you patiently willed me to chance

A shot at "us" – a go at romance

Only this time the decision - it rested with fate

Yes, I know I deemed't ludicrous but I must now negate

You see, we've always know that this romance was right

Through murder, through partners through fight and through flight

Though we never quite got there – never quite aligned

Never till now - I think you will find

Till I gazed upon the bundle wrapped tightly and neat

With her little pink hands and tiny toed feet

Never have I seen such a bold declaration

Of love and commitment – a wondrous creation

So here is our proof of fate stepping in

How through battles and wars we both came to win

How despite my fears and our many missed gambles

Through relationships failed and feelings a shambles

We've come to accept it and acceptance is bliss

For once in our life is a chance taken not missed


Please drop me a line :)

Take care!
