BUTTERMILK

friendship of equal lengths

melts buttery and sideways

over life's plate

lingering in the crevices

quietly accepting syrup

nudging fate, stubbornly

refusing to mix

with love's fuzzy warmth

    intriguing.
    a friendship without love?
    I don't know why, but this poem reminds me
    of, marriage. You know, when two people who
    love eachother get mad at one another.
    They get stubborn, refusing to budge.
    love can't live there.
    sad.

    I kind of feel like that today. And the only answer to it is Pancakes smothered in that warm syrup to fill those angry crevices of mine.

    Hehe,
    Reminds me of Sarah McLaughlin
    "You`re love is sweeter than Chocolate".
