Love and Eternity: VIII

VIII
"When Has The Sun Failed To Shine?"

When has the sun failed to shine from above?
Its consistency far removed from the wavering heart
Lives besought with twists and turns of fickle love
Let loose the demons of ardor that tear men apart
Yearning for that damsel fair unyielding
On Cupid's wings men run faster than striplings
Unbound strength exposed by one dearest darling
By romantic piercings his world soon crumbling
Enter the abyss that love soon wrought
Made by thought compounded upon by doubt
In cowardice the weak-willed have safety sought
Now the strong dive headlong to the drought
Evermore has time proven love's fatality
Mortality etched upon each failing romance
Every suffering lead by love's totality
Lifetimes consumed by love's chance and circumstance
In spite the wounds grievous that love may suffer
Succumb many still to the warmth it offers
Straight ahead as all still encounter
Ardor's heat the lifeline that none may flounder
As one takes the plunge into the chasm of passion
Never remember the time of indecision
Never turn back and repulse the vacillation
Enter headlong until you win passion's recognition
