Second Chances

For love is not always easy, not always kind,
It is the bond that ties us, body, and mind.
We refuse to give up, to let go of what we hold dear,
For in each other's arms, we have nothing to fear.
Through the stormy seas and darkest nights,
We cling to each other, our hearts continuing to fight.
Broken but not beaten, we try to rebuild what was lost,
Holding on to love, no matter the cost.
It isn't easy to forgive and forget, 
But letting go will be easier than living with our regrets.
Loving each other after trust had been broken,
It is a journey of redemption, a promise never spoken.
For in each other's eyes, we see
That I was meant for you, and you were meant for me.
Knowing that together we could find
That our hearts are forever entwined.
