Life and Love
Life wrinkles your skin
Love scarres your heart
Love glues lovers together
Life splits them apart
Life and love
Like leaves on a branch
Like stalactites in a cave
Like snow and avalanche
Love and life
Like hearts shivering at nights
Like blankets worn thin
Like dying
On a perfect day in spring.
Love scarres your heart
Love glues lovers together
Life splits them apart
Life and love
Like leaves on a branch
Like stalactites in a cave
Like snow and avalanche
Love and life
Like hearts shivering at nights
Like blankets worn thin
Like dying
On a perfect day in spring.

You overwhelm me with the images your words stir in my memory. And your ability to do so in only three verses.

Glad to have reached you with my poem although for me three verses are kind of an epic poem :-). Thank you so much for your kind words!

We should have made it a collaborative poem :-). Life and love are wonderful topics and your suggestion is a real enrichment :-). Thanks sodium589 :-)

Thanks a lot, dear Spanker! Perhaps a little kitchy but at least it's how I felt deep inside.

Really? That makes me happy! It is perhaps a little clichéd but when it came to my mind I didn't think so :-). Thanks a lot, Sara!
