tonight we cannot stop the party
ocean promenade beneath the waves
it's a dolphin marriage
and it's a lively affair, my friends
they chirp and laugh so loudly
your ears are ringing but it's okay
watch your miss, my friend
they'll slip between the two of you
and steal her from you forever
and she'll adore them and enjoy it
for they're better lovers than we could ever be
don't worry friend
such things happen
but the fun goes on in spite
she'll remember you i guess
as a faded friend, a lesser lover
a man who was no match
it's a long party under silver waves
long as your heart can beat
as long as dolphins keep on marrying
as long as we can sing in tune
and keep a smile on our faces
though we are all saddened
since the dolphins stole our girls
away from us forever
we are left with each other
which is all we ever had
the dolphins stole the best
but we've still got the rest
and in this we're blessed

This is an old poem. Like, I wrote this in 2005, old. But I remembered that I wrote it recently, and so I have decided to see if I can do anything at all with it. I don't really even remember what it was about, to tell the truth. I know it stood for 'something', but whatever that something was is lost even to me. Maybe it's about how sometimes things you don't understand happen, and things you held in high regard are taken from you, but things are all right in spite of it. I don't know. Maybe you all can help me try to make sense of it again. Cause, I still like it, and I would like to do something with it.
) with all kinds of vivid food-for-thought to chew on, and it crossed over into this, meaning that the imagery I thought belonged to your poem was actually coming across because of that puzzle.
