Love Poem: Resurrection

Resurrection

Separation can be the death of a loving relationship, 
but can resurrection come too? 
Can one give a reprieve from
Braking bonds that bind. 

Threads that tie heart to hearts. 
Sliced lingering emotions apart
as death comes…

To the spirit of life shared, 
separation of self from the one. 
A little death, the dates inscribed 
in broken tombstones. 
But, one still loves even if the other declines. 

IF? 

Can one forgive and move on? 
Can those carved words be scrubbed? 
Will you change your tone?

Can one mend the fences and 
bring the horses home 
re-tie the threads that hold? 
Can we resurrect the love from its little death 
An raise like the Lazarus in all of us?  

Can the bonds rebind? 

A separation is undone a war won. 
Can resurrection come? 
Separation can be the death 
of love 
of a relationship….

But…


Resurrection?
