Cozy Kinship

People come to tell me your weaknesses They come with a list of vices and faults When they are done, I laughed out their meanness But they make me love you more for your faults. Our relationship assigned forever The will stamped and signed, never to depart We ought to love in fair or foul weather We may retract the heart though cannot part. Our love is priced more than the world can hold A vast reservoir, the rivers can’t slake We have built such secrecy quite controlled Our manners will overcome if there’s slack. Let’s us be patient in love while we live When we’re no more, forever we may live. +++ September 2, 2014 Form: Sonnet (Pentameter Syllable count-140) Sixth Place Win Contest: Intimate Relationship by Regina
