Ear piercing cries at our birth of life
Is apropos- for a lively introduction
Some relationships are just meant
To diverge- after their brief interlude
Perhaps completing their full purpose
However, some of us, can at times
Disagree wholeheartedly with that
So much so, we desperately cling
To what seemed so promising to us
Becoming wrought in disappointment
That deep unsettling churns within us
Muddying our understandments clarity
It almost seems to go against our nature
Altering the course of our former direction
With little or no regard to our preferences
But we’ll continue to flow with fluidity
Sometimes in a deeper, quieter fashion
While at other times, evermore intensity
Thanks in part our friend the now stranger
Like all streams, we’ll bend or overcome
Even our own predominate dissatisfaction
As delusional bubbles rush up only to burst
Or seize the moment as intolerable and die
As life settles again in clear understanding
Of our new selves, limits, and humanity
This is the nature of human life…in motion

“Thanks in part our friend the now stranger” – what does this line suggest regarding our relationships with the women who birth us?

It is speaking of friends that have had a profound effect in our lives in a very short lived relationship, as if that was their only divine purpose in our lives; we never hear from them afterwards, nonetheless, our direction in life has been altered by their presence, yet we move onward.

Maybe not for you. Perhaps you should stop viewing the world’s view through your personal perspectives so dishonestly.
