Everything

my love for you
never dims
no matter the 
blows that it takes
even if the knowledge
that we have no fate
arrives with an abruptness 
that I wish it was late

my Love for you
has been through the wars
for so long now
it has been my rightful cause
it’s ups and downs
it seems
have come to nothing
yet to me
you and it are everything
