*long relationships *
Longer relationships are not forged
From sweet words and light curves
They are cast by stubbornness
Fortitude in misunderstandings
Holding a corner and fighting
Till life's spirit is on the floor
And yet you still return for more
This is love of rocks and stones and sticks
And bruises purple raw and throbbing
Each ego grating against the other
How your partner eats their food
The relations who don't approve
In failure's canyons and illness flaws
In every grating action which palls
Over journey to this point
Until murder seems a reasonable solution
For no monarchy was so hard to dissolve
As this love rusted on and old
No other life envisaged beyond
Will be as stubborn determined and raw
As first we were when realisation was set
Loving sweet can relationship started
But guts and steel is needed to endure it.
