Love

Love
Topic Sentence: The one thing that poisons and endangers love, has always been the test of time.

For the stars shine bright, 
On the loneliest of nights
To Give way a passage to Thee
The love I fear is somewhere near and dear to me

As my heart skips a beat,
Yours takes a seat,
Upon my idled thrown 
And the flowers you bring, wilder than the wildest flowers ever grown

And if it weren’t for your smile,
Which stole my heart for a while,
Then your burden would have taken and heartened me

But alas this is love,
From the sweetest of all kingdoms and heavens above,
And none can deter me 
From thee

Though love can be cruel,
Your love has been true
Open arms, filled with only warmth is what you have given me
Like a mother’s hug, as I remember it now, I can see it so vividly 

And if life had been fair 
Then my heart would not tear 
And our love would have perfect symmetry 
But a long-full sleep took you from me 
For what felt like a century 

And now you return 
For the love you have earned 
So I’ll go with you silently 
But never forget, for our love, 
how dangerous time can be
