Love Poem: Spoken Nails

Spoken Nails

Mud thickens direly as I sink in shame, 
Eternal devastations stride in liberty, 
Wearied by the gloom of difficulty, 
I sigh, but hope pensively in your frame:
You are my love, my dignity and aim; 
In our speech my tethers do quantify, 
Until reason transcends to pacify,
Ripping the hold of the fragmented maim; 
May madness is no longer confusion, 
Complexity evades in summation;
If only I could love you more the same, 
And give you another wide open door, 
We would in conversation rhyme and roar, 
And life I would never in full so blame.
