love is not so easy to kill
Anger seeps
into the crevices of our lives
displacing the space
our hearts called home
Cruelly
is a cancer growing
a burning ember that ignites
a forest fire of destruction
leaving in the aftermath
a numb placidity,
darkness
and unending sadness
Avoiding each other's eyes
ashamed of words meant to hurt
praying all could be unsaid
and then you touch my hand
offering a new beginning
a blessing
turning pain
into summer rains
Watching as flowers unfold
seeing the world grow
Together
we walk within the storm
washing souls clean
leaving spirits
whole
Holding hands
we look in each others eyes
finding a miracle
deep inside
love is not so easy to kill
into the crevices of our lives
displacing the space
our hearts called home

Yes... it isn't!
No matter how many times you try.
Deeply felt, with the metaphors!

Oh yes, anger and jealousy...
Can be so destructive.
Growing and occupying the space where...
love, trust, and affection once were.
Fear, anxiety, and depression
Betrayal, shame, and resentment...
Often trying to find a place there as well.
But sometimes in the aftermath.
bathing in the tears he takes your hand.
love and affection taking hold again.
Looking into your eyes and all is forgotten.
And all is remembered.
Those things that made you love each other.
The storm that brings out the flowers.
A passionate storm which leaves you embracing.
and you realize love is not so easy to kill.

Writing me love poems for this poem of love, you know the lust for pain, you know the closeness after the rain, you have knowingly traveled there, you know...
