shared beauty

dusk arising

 

 

 


The brutal torture
of betrayal hung
like a swinging blade
over any faith in love.

Duties influenced,
honoured in loyalty
...where now,
a wind of change,
tore savage at
the ragged edges
of damaged love.

But here,
brought together
by chance conversation,
a slow thaw entered.

Alone together again
the agony of their past
gained a shared beauty
of it's own.
