let's give it another shot

i used to do the second
chance thing.
the maybe
we should try again scenario,
maybe we should give it
another shot
and be more
than just friends, let's
bring the romance back,
be a couple.
we're both older now,
wiser, and better people,
there was love there once,
why can't there be
love again?
we'll have ground rules,
and boundaries,
no more lying to each other,
or cheating,
or gaslighting.
no more old boyfriends
and husbands, or girlfriends
and wives still in the picture.
what do you say?
i'm game if you are, i tell her,
to which she says,
what are you nuts?
