Biddable Love

Sweet serenity lay beneath the feet of a solemn man.

In the midst of the cold rain his heart endures.

Heavy laden eyes swollen in pain burn stinging red.

Tears stream softly, silently upon his broken shoulder.

Naturally tormented twisted inside and bruised against wooden planks.

Sunken deeply into the pools of his soaking palm

Arduously, he lifts his brow to utter words foretold.

Intricate in detail flowing saccharine like that of thick honey.

It smothers every ear welding the sincerity of his love upon their souls.
