One Challenge to a Marriage |
Struggled in vain with all my might Yet lost all efforts to keep emotions tight Blessed was I when all became right Oh, my love rewarded with hers so bright Mutual love and respect was our due Renewed afresh daily by the morning dew Love grounded deep without any hue Expressed in ways that nothing else imbue Our love we continued to profess Our love, our vows; no plans to reverse We loved even under duress Our hearts together forever as in verse Love covered us day and night Like honeymooners on our maiden night T’was like when we first sight Till the other came in with emotional bite Trouble was looming; we had no clue Seemed yet another story in our long queue Told to each other between the pew But this one story was not to be a humor cue Never was about a devil in blue dress Might as well have been considering the mess Indeed there was nothing to confess Yet the tension was high, we needed redress The first time our love’s been thus tested Tough but love committed remains untainted Recognizing this as love interrupted! A blip in our path that should be conquered We work now toward hearts contrite Whate’er form it takes that’ll make us tight The love that lifted us on first sight Should see us through to a future so bright |
