Test and Tears

If loving is such a crime

I will gladly do the time

Pass this test and the tears

Taking it on with no fears


Caught in the lie

Fearing plenty though I try

Not to succumb to giving up

Not merely some lovesick pup


Thrashed and beaten through this course

Roughly bashed in river’s force

The waters of love, patchy and cruel

But leading to beauty and life fuel


Nights in bed, mind conflicted

Mornings in hiding, feeling constricted

The waters of love and waters of pain

Flow together from the eyes they stain


But this test will be beaten

As I knew all along, victory then

All worthwhile through wait and ache

As it was for your and my sake


Times gone by so swiftly sly

Such a history in short span by

Knowing one like the other

That differences can’t smother


All so clear and linked

Each thought seems synced

Yet couldn’t be further apart

In everything other than thy heart


Such unusual beginnings start

Before even aware of such a part

Hurt for that of one elsewhere

In memory linked a pair


First and foremost such care

To the extents of despair

Still trudging persistently

Dreams crushed reviving lively
