We Beat The Distance

Through the painful tears
Streaming down my battered face
We stayed together

Through the darting eyes
Considering one night stands
We stayed strong in love

Through hopeless nightfalls
Cold and bitter to the touch
Our hearts were enraged

Through the months and years
Of good times and bad moments
We beat the distance

    This is unique to me, I've never seen a haiku chain before. I really like this poem and the struggles you speak of are genuine and true. Everyone struggles, but not everyone beats the distance. :
