Love Poem: Yesterday's Love

Yesterday's Love

We were only two young lovers
crossing the threshold of desire 
Impatient, passionate heated
our souls burned with a youthful fire 

Sure of our immortality 
we shook our fists against the world
Standing together for courage
with our banners proudly unfurled

So many years have slid behind
since we first heard those battle cries
Now our mortality mocks us
shadows of crosses dull our eyes

Since that very first touch bound us
your love has consumed me always
Today our hearts still beat as one
like it was only yesterday
