You and I will crack one day
The smoothness will all go away
And as our hairs fade into grey
Will the love still stay?
We promise love until the dust
But so often forget the rust
Failing frequently to discuss
What happens if nothing happens to us
The porcelain will splinter and chip
Marking, for some, where the veil rips
But my love lasts more than just a stint
Of smooth skin on my fingertips
For if the twilight fades the blue
It replaces it with countless hues
And so will grow my love for you
In seeing, remem’bring what we’ve gone through
You and I will crack, no doubt
But my love will faithfully pour out
To endless bound, in copious amounts
A quenching water from an undying spout

“When I give my heart, it will be completely, or I will never give my heart...” -Nat King Cole
“In time the Rockies may tumble, Gibraltar may crumble, they’re only made of clay. But our love is here to stay...”
