Living Bond

[Christopher Stewart]

dare i declare that we'll always be one
that in your soul breathes an echo of mine
that our paths will fusion down the line
that this living bond cannot come undone

dare i reveal how we have been misled
by values that want us to be apart
told only a fool could follow their heart
by demons of greed, reason, and hatred

could you forgive me for being doubtful
of accepting the fate of a prophet
and having been of you so distrustful

could you punish me for taking so long
too bruised a lover, too meek a poet
to voice the truths we all knew all along

[Luna Arjuna]

Very beautiful.
