Surrender On Stormy Fronts

Love is a challenge Love is raw in cinders She places a barrier As she poises for another Anger is seething So clearly embattled I'm ready to call it off Forbidding her companionship On these gruesome terms She says the future is uncertain Writing me love notes from the sky Wandering to me pitch after pitch But still her past devotion Blocks my entry Caught in this triangle Defenses are weighed A sullen gambit turned mistake I'm pressing to fight Again as nature beholds Still, her silent ecstasy unfolds As she breaks down instinct And resynthesizes The portal of our love- Once more Im patrolling the battlefield Announcing that we charge or retreat But finally, im left to silence Her subtle pattering heart Forges my surrender On this stormy night Author notes
