Ended

The story had a happy ending

as such stories might have.

Why am I crying then?

The white swan watching me from afar

asked?

Maybe the story should end a different way?

Maybe I should have read it as if?

you turned your eyes

to look me in the eyes

and I set sail with what had made the story

your deep full of wonder eyes.

Though it was not mine

The happy ending, I thought

It could be yours

a happy ending to a story

which never ended.

A beginning to an end

as we were being watched

by that white swan

which had not experienced

the sad ending to her story?
