Ephemeral Ache The everlasting ache in our hearts Routinely leave and return In swirls of sorrow Like a storm - a raging cascade. That never completely abandons us But leaves us for enough time To contemplate hope. For a while The pain attenuates And the sun shines Illuminating all the good In our hearts, And allows us to forget That we were ever cold That we ever let sadness dominate our Fragile, and Weak bodies. We believe we are strong But the love is temporary... Too temporary. But then the sun retires And the dry river is nursed to health The river of sorrow flows again Cold and endless And full of our tears.
