Tearful Streams At Love's Fork

Bartered tears with your love adorn Twin streams from pure, spring founts born Sappy pores gushing with showers of contrition on christening morn Exchanged with vows that o'er time were weathered and torn Briny waves of doubt crested; fealties' banks shorn Now bottled memories silted with salty tears forlorn Eroding tear ducts inundated and with passing time worn    Brackish vapor distilled with rotting dreams; with nauseous fumes borne Corroded promises mired in a dry bed of scorn Cloaked in callous foliage spited with thistle and thorn Meeting at the jaded fork; once vibrant streams solemnly mourn Stagnant puddles awaiting reincarnation; at next season's fertile rains reborn
