It wasn’t what he’d thought it was And never would it be The ease with which his mortal self The ease with which he’d see Tomorrow turn to yesteryear And yesterday to now And when they turned he held her hand And whispered with a vow A vow that would see them become A couplet - ever stronger A vow that would last through the years And bring them love for longer And with the thunder and the storm The wind became a bluster The days they passed them all the more Without trouble fuss or fluster But when the time it came to test The essence of forgiveness They'd stay the test – be timeless yet A lesson to attest us
