Up Where We Belong and Same, Same, But Different

In this forgiving world, time’s doorstep

Where we find each other mellowing

Noble and fragile in our own web

In this forgiving world, time’s doorstep

Where seasons come and go and ebb

Together our love is echoing

In this forgiving world, time’s doorstep

Where we find each other mellowing*

  • A Triolet is a poetic form consisting of only 8 lines. Within a Triolet, the 1st, 4th, and 7th lines repeat, and the 2nd and 8th lines do as well. The rhyme scheme is simple: ABaAabAB, capital letters representing the repeated lines.
