Each and all,
a heart's hope,
chancing,
all that's left
a heart romancing,
looking for
the smooth rock stone
I wish to hold you--
You are my own.

And if I could,
I'd carve your wood
in measures still
as yet, unsung.
Sanded, now
as fine as silk,
betrayal,
'neath the eyes of hood,
the victor's spoils
of days too young
every stitch
remains, uncounted...
and oh my tears
the grief surmounted--
I'd be with you,
if but I could.

Heed the call.
Chance, but a glancing...
Heed the call.
His song, entrancing...
weep of heart
a blood's surpassing...
I'd be with you,
if but I could...

The regretful sighs of yesterdays indulgences and tomorrows promises upon given chance.  Excellent write my friend. It is never easy but you will find the strength in it.
