Risk by Todd-Michael St. Pierre
Oh death may say of dreams in youth -
"You never knew her private truth."
So much we weren't prepared for,
Hearts should be nurtured and cared for.
I stepped into this dance with you,
I chose to take this chance with you!
Facing risk, I knew the dangers . . .
For when the dancing ends,
Though many remain friends,
Some become
Strangers!
"You never knew her private truth."

Facing risk, I knew the dangers . . .
For when the dancing ends,
Though many remain friends,
Some become
Strangers!
This poem is about falling out of love and the inevitable pain that goes along with it.
Being young and risking it all, putting it all on the line, only to learn with the passage of years, that despite our best efforts sometimes, we drift apart and upon separation the one we loved and thought we knew so well seems more like a stranger than an actual stranger. It's the irony of Love.
