Love Conquers All?

A union of mind, body and soul
Their bodies entwined in a passionate embrace
Rhythmically they move to new heights of ecstasy
Climax achieved after the thrill of the chase

Dark clouds empty their cleansing water
Hypnotic sounds of raindrops above
The couple lay gazing into each others eyes
Acts of lust slowly turning to love

The ticking clock, a wake up call
Back to a world of blood, sweat and tears
Hurriedly dressing, checking out then checking in
Their minds a maelstrom of hopes and fears

It wasn't meant to be like this
Energy sapped from the mess they're in
No light in the tunnel, just an oncoming train
One drowning in whiskey, the other in gin

All relationships have their ups and downs
Troubled times can bring a price to pay
An imperfect world full of human frailty
Love conquers all, or so they say
