Heart Labor

Heart Labor

Heart Labor

In the space between
passion's inferno
and comfortable familiarity

I lost her

Or at least misplaced 
my life mate

Absence happens

Love is never
a constant stream

It has it's
ebbs and flow

Love even runs dry at times

but you know
it's ALWAYS there

Probably? Maybe? 

In theory??

Somewhere beneath
layers of neglect

Time dilutes us all

causing lovers to forget

what brought them together

and the effort required

to maintain theoretical

forever love

Hey Steve, I was checking out some of your pieces and I wanted to comment on this........it is free from overwriting, it doesn't waste any time or effort, it flows like dream and it expresses something that everyone can relate to.  It is incredibly difficult to maintain a relationship in these modern times where everyone seems to be craving there freedom.  This was so well expressed and heartfelt...........great write my friend....well done............5*s.....tony

Thank Tony for your very humbling words... I have zero formal training as a writer so perhaps that's a blessing for me (sometimes at least) as I try to focus on substance and never agonize over form or style
