Relations steadfast, sincere
Bonds of love true, unbounded
Break up, rust, soon wear and tear
Over time out of no care;
With trust steady, unbroken
And respect unfeigned, so true
The cracks be mended, tended
To stave off much deeper rifts.

Second Place
I've got aches and pains and chills and blains,
Arthritis, Bursitis and more.
If it weren't for this darn Sciatica,
I'm sure it would hurt even more.
I have dizzy spells, sometimes I hear bells,
I see colors and floaters galore.
Can't move my left shoulder, guess I'm getting older,
I can't find a place that ain't sore.
One thing keeps me going and that is just knowing,
That it isn't all in my head.
This pain is a blessing though fortitude testing,
It's a sure sign I'm not dead...…..
Yet
coloured flecks
on the front door-
peeling away
of memories...
love’s dilapidation

I've got aches and pains and chills and blaines,
Arthritis, bursitis and more.
If it weren't for this darn sciatica,
I'm sure it would hurt even more.
How can I tell you i love you?
To show that I still care
Never was there another
Though my heart's for the wear and tear
