The Hap-Hap-Happy Couple

They saw each other via semi-regular personal interactions
Which is not to say there weren't any compelling attractions
They just thought it best not to try to push their luck
By sticking around one or the other like a hopeless schmuck

There were those who said that surely that's just fear of
commitment
But they swore it helped prevent boredom from becoming
malignant

Not once, they both decreed, has the magic ever 
died
And both stated that neither has been tempted to 
backslide

It's been ever so long a time since they last had a fight
As far back as both can recall everything's simply been alright
Still, every so often they both imagine and wonder
What sort of misstep would it take to tear their thing asunder
