    The Pledge
    The past is behind us
    Where one was now two
    Darkness is ended
    Love makes things anew

    Our love is a beacon
    Through storms it shall guide
    Two hearts strongly beating
    Tested and tried

    Our love is immortal
    T'will never bleed and die
    Wounds heal but quickly
    Death cannot abide

    Passions enduring
    Tho' mortal shells we shed
    Flesh no more binding
    Our spirits free to wed

    Forever seems nothing
    Time slips so fast away
    So pledge I myself to thee
    Forever and a day.

    This poem to me whispers of 'sweet-nothings'....ah the nothings that are everything. Thanks for these words Bridget which have sent me on a detour right in the recesses of my memories.

    "Forever seems nothing Time slips so fast away So pledge I myself to thee Forever and a day." You have the ability to reach down the inner core. Great writing!

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
