    IT

    How do you say it's over to something that never

    began?

    How do you put an end to something that never

    existed?

    How do you put a stop to what never started?

    How does feelings arise from a thing that never was?

    I ache, as if IT had begun and is now over.

    I feel loss, as if IT will never exist again.

    What was IT? IT never had a name.

    IT was just, IT.

    Quite honestly, I looked forward to IT.

    I adored IT.

    I desired IT.

    I lusted for IT.

    I had to make love to IT.

    But most of all, I enjoyed embracing IT.

    The thing about IT though, IT does not work

    if IT is not appreciated by everyone involved.

    What happens is, the thing you most cherished

    about IT, is the very thing that will disappoint you the

    most from IT.

    Call IT what you want, but I am pleased and happy to

    have experienced IT, if only for a little while,

    than to have never felt IT at all.
