Broken Patterns

I was reading Gif today and what Tan was going through. For some reason I decided that the other involved person was Amy. So Amy and Tan are no longer together. Hey, chill I am not suggesting that the world breaks apart just because there are sundered hearts all around us. No, time does not do a freeze on act too. Well nothing much happens and yet everything seems to have changed.

Broken patterns of life,
Changed styles of living,
Like a heart pierced by the knife,
Not Living, just gliding.

Along came the mighty wave,
A surge of happiness anticipated,
All the jungle out of caves,
Thinking souls would be sated.

Nothing really changed,
Not him, neither her,
The seasons just passed,
He grew thinner, she fatter.

Along came a day,
All bright and sunny,
Just right for making hay,
Everyone cheerful and funny.

Their old thoughts took a dive,
So did their core,
Broken patterns of life,
Remerged once more!

Suzy, u know wat? I had really gotten into the character of Gina(it wasn't Amy in the jungle, but names dont matter!) so i was her and feelign all those things when i wrote that! Kinda scary, am glad i hopped outta that phase! But break ups are real tough for some ppl!
U become like 'I-can't-care-what happens-to-the world' person!
