Our Love

Our love survives the roaring noise of life

The pounding of the waves on the rocks

It is stronger;

 

The bright glare of life\'s lights

And the never-ending night

It is longer;

 

The guessing game of tomorrow

The decisions, which way to go

It is clearer;

 

The travelling to far-off lands

Forever away from home

It is nearer;

 

The endless words and discourse

The empty phrases and platitudes

It is unspoken;

 

The binds and ropes that fray

The hands that wave goodbye

It is never broken;

 

The days that come and go

The breezes that blow through

It watches in it\'s armchair;

 

The suns that rise and set

The moons that wax and wane

It is forever there.
