Lovers And Others
Paradise could never be
so wonder-filled as lovers.
Pangs of hell could never be
so horror-filled as others.
The hourglass surely shows
superlatives in lovers.
The sands of time also show
insufferance in others.
A healing balm is a gift
freely given from lovers.
Secret wreckage, left behind,
the full account from others.
Sheer passion sets you on fire,
the full embrace of lovers.
Hope and fortune also burn:
deceptive flames of others.
In memory, growth and support
with fostered strength from lovers.
Awful behaviors written
indelibly from others.
