Embers of Love

I have laced our love
with something special.
In it lies the proof
of my unending allegiance.
Even when the shadows of time
creep in on our fleshy confines;
and the petals in your gardens
fade away.
The embers of my love
will forever be ablaze.

      hey abuyi, thanks for the comment. my absence was due to a terribly long writer's block. it's good to be back!

    Wow this was really good. I especially like the lines: creep in on our fleshy confines;
    and the petals in your gardens
    fade away.

    Thanks so much for entering. Keep up the good work!~
