Cross To Bear

The sacrifice to love
Was found before we found it

Great big grey skies
Long stretches of still water
Eye make-up, sparkling glasses
Dancing to the rhythm of time
Two days of ill confined
Desolation, forty-eight
Hours symbiotically taken
From what's left of this life

The sacrifice to love
Was found way before we found it

Where ones become twos
To embrace and support, to
Give a light to the darkness, to
Drink coffee so many miles away
With time to pen a few words, which
Can’t quite catch either the complexity
Or the generosity of two souls who choose
Freely, to share their precious times apart

The sacrifice to love
Was indeed found, way before we found it
