Leather and lace and in ******* we trust, for trust is where we find each other.

Words of affirmation lead to gifts of temptation, time spent together revealed trust in one another and respect hand in hand.

Birds of a fountain pen write together and bonded words scrawled in blood on stone, time runs through sand and we are not alone.

Hourglass.

sand over sand equals time and time again, thick and thin means better or worse and any port in a storm, safe harbor from the soft words that would fall apart from lesser men who would woo you to unsuccessful avail, and ivory towers high above shelter from the storm that was.

What was is past and what is shall be and together through bonded hearts and a future paved in uncertainty but together hand in hand we become sand.

Time and time again
