For her the one-

over others, he outshone.

When she turned her back,

alas, he was gone.

 

For him the one,

and when he was gone,

he knew at once,

over others, she outshone.

 

For them, too late-

too much pride at stake.

Both stubborn as mules,

with no give and take.

 

 

 

 

 

A done deal,

a shake of the hands.

A promise as airtight

as vapour.

Means nothing in law,

nor is recognised,

unless it is written

on paper.
