And so it seemed,
On that very first day!
Us. Attracted. Opposite.
Like chalk and cheese;
Fire and ice.
Alas! they forgot to quote,
Chalk and cheese cannot be eaten together
And when fire meets ice
What remains is,
An inexplicable, mind numbing void.
And a web of lies
As shaky and as convoluted as our ties.
Wasn't it better that we never met ?
Like the two (river)banks,
That flowed together yet stayed apart

Hello Winnie~ I love the connection you made to the prompt. Your poem really shows the collapse of a relationship. Cheese and chalk is a beautiful way to show opposites. And, your ending pulls it all together strongly. Well done. Have a nice night.
Chance and necessity work inevitably and they ARE complimentary to each other.
Every electron is meant to be there for the other electron.
There is no"BETTER OR WORSE "

Hi Winnie.
Thank you for reading my ramblings and enjoying them.
It is a miracle of sorts, that art and poetry hinges on the relationship between the artist/poet and the reader - that brings about magic.
I was wondering who you were...there isn't a brief bio page on this blog. ;)
cheers

You have outdone yourself with this one .. the metaphor meets the literal ...is the making of a good poem, and you succeeded very well!
