Suspended in the New Fade, Part 5

"suspension" can mean a lot of things

and sometimes those connotations

can be related or they can be 

considered entirely on their own

this one is familiar like your own scent

something you've experienced before

and lived with and maybe it's not

what you would have asked for yourself

but you have it and that's that

this one sidled up like a friend

like a lover slipping back into old habits

after a break and expects nothing

to have changed but of course things have

and now what you want is maybe that lover

but with a few differences

there was nothing wrong before

it's just that maybe what you need now

is different from what you needed then

and if the lover is still faithful they're realize

that and maybe already be that and that's

probably they were your lover in the first place

because they change as you change 

this one sees maybe an inkling that

what you learned in the past has been fruitful

and multiplied and changed the rules of the game

which still operates with the same strategies

but now you're better prepared to play

and you'll know what to do and you will get

better results and you will perhaps make it work 

this time

well, as we always say, we'll see
