Tempest

Faced again with thoughts that vex us daily,
We try to calm this tempest in our heads.
This tired, trying task that impacts greatly,
The peace we seek, and sends discord instead.
For you I weep, your pain must soon depart,
Partake,my sweet of new and vibrant life.
With relished fire, refresh, renew, restart,
And claim anew these joys so real and rife.
Let our love survive yet also strengthen,
Our firm resolve to stand triumphantly.
Shortened days of joy may now be lengthened,
While days of pain are viewed most distantly.

As storm clouds must abate,your love denied
Must flower from the tears your eyes have cried.
