It's there somewhere
the love between grows
with each passing minute
the love between ebbs and flows.
Marriage is work
filled with moments
of false riches, hatred of deeds,
the elegance left behind.
We attempt to dispel
these headaches - these
heartaches - to cleanse
and find the natural vitality
of life and love again.
We stumble in our pride
caught in the haughtiness
and find we miss what we were
not realizing the joy that comes
after the growing pains
subside.
Each love is thorny,
and we may complain
that rose bushes have thorns
but covering the thorns in
maternal love eases the pain.
My love, I will return
to thee, more fully me
than I ever was
before.
