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
