But a marriage,<br>that began without harm, scatters <br>into debris on the shore, <br>and a friend from school drops <br>cold on a rocky strand.<br>If a new love carries us <br>past middle age, our wife will die <br>at her strongest and most beautiful. <br>New women come and go. All go. <br>The pretty lover who announces <br>that she is temporary<br>is temporary. The bold woman,<br>middle-aged against our old age,<br>sinks under an anxiety she cannot withstand. <br>Another friend of decades estranges himself <br>in words that pollute thirty years. <br>Let us stifle under mud at the pond's edge <br>and affirm that it is fitting<br>and delicious to lose everything.</a></div><div style="margin:10px 0"><br /></a><a href="http://poems.citatepedia.com/">poem</a> by <strong><a rel="author" href="http://authors.citatepedia.com/by.php?a=Donald+Hall">Donald Hall</a></strong></div>
