Yearning
Heart void lost love
yearning what was
when our time was slow my heart your treasure
our passion unpoisoned by carnal pleasure
your wisdom my heart's will until my heart stills
Cherishing photographs of sacred memories
tarnished by anger selfish joy and jealousy
never tamed our passions, despite their pain
Betrayed by lust our solemn vows broken ruined our past
may our past strenghthen our future remains an unspoken task
Past photographs of forgotten moments unmemorized
our hands lovelocked embracing compromise
careful sharing sincerities seemed wise
In haste I sworn against you
yet your patient and true
Kept your distance from others never trusting their concern and vision
this bridge they dare not cross without spiritual wisdom
Kept my faith despite temptation
our shared passions...inspiration
our angered son's light woke my conscience
yet his comforting can't ease...indifference
yet two colors must blend
forever inseperable yearning an end
