Tethered Love

proclamations writ on water
such were the lifeless vows I uttered
they cheered on as my soul tugged tether
Yet it flows away, line of life and dead blurred

I remember each day, your smile
and my reflection that pitied my fate
Dare I not ask more, but be grateful the while
Love in abundance yet all it felt sedate

And here l lie lifeless at rest
with a heart that lived in your debt
Ever last I drowned in guilt, yet you still wailed
For your love benevolent than the heavens,
one such the eternity shall never forget and forever shall it remain prevailed
