excellent use of proximate rhyming in your rhyming couplets
like in through/truths and by/survive
good alliteration in trial and truths
strong use of questions to intensify the emotion
soulful expression throughout

This is very well done. I just kind of wondered about something. The only thing that caught my eye was the we and the I. And then the final line - can you surmise? I find it a bit off when at first it's WE and then I and back to US and then YOU. Do you see what I mean? Maybe this is all good. But I am thinking not. The poem itself is beautiful.

Greener pastures are usually the result of intentionally becoming color blind. A hard road trying to mature and stay together, learning to become friends instead of lust guiding our hearts. Very nicely done. AT=/

Ah, the resolutions, the vows, the well intended pursuits, I remember them well! I guess one of the best advantages of being older is the acceptance of one's humanity, and frailty, well written, articulately conceived! Well done, blessings, Roy.

Reflection on a Relationship, is a closer match with the content, not that 'on Life' is is totally unmatched.

The many aspects of the minds of lovers who approach, but to not capture, companionship are the thread I see from start to finish here with a hint of hope for a finale.

A walk through life under the shadow
of distrust and heartache poetically and
artistically falling in poignant words with
thoughts of what next is going to happen
in this journey of a man and a woman.
Well done

This is a great rhyming poem with a lot of what happened, and why love ends. Instead, what about greener Promised Land? Is there a possibility of survival, no! With distrust, mind games, and when trust is gone, is there any good left? Can I surmise? Of course, and that's to lock the door and never look back. Head down another path and keep on going. Great write, and I enjoyed. . .Sharon

Not together forever, not without a shadowy care; pending years, pending judgments, pending individual immortality. The mystery is present and alert. Another enjoyable piece adorning your own signature.
