Let No Man Put Asunder

Let No Man Put Asunder 

Such as ours the
gods had never granted passion
so harmonious even they
could not know such exultation. 

Endlessly steeped euphoria,
absorbed until no need for balance
exists between us.
We are intertwined

enduring into the blackest
of black.
Soddered in pain
the cord refuses to unravel.

No Kathy I didn't know . Soldered and glued are words used in England but I can think of quite a few words defined as English that are spoken in other countries but not in mine .

Thanks Darren. Maybe glued instead of soddered would have been a better choice of words. Actually maybe the word is solder (oh I hope it can be spelled both ways) - when you fuse two pieces of metal. Right? You probably really know that. love, Kathy
