Distance and Time

Distance and Time
By Andrew Moravick

Distance, devious demon, dare you divide my love from me?
Seek you satisfaction by separating her from my embrace?
Foolish fiend, find you fulfillment when with my love I can’t be?
Cruel creature, content you does it to cleave my eyes from her face?

Time torture me must you to make me endure your expanse?
Troublesome tic take you joy in supping on my lonesome skin?
Tedious talk, try taunt me with others united undivided by chance?
Test me, torment me until I’m tempted to surrender to sin?

Bothersome burdens, be you so bold believing you can prevail?
Ignorant inhibitors, insist you in vain that you may quell my will?
Frivolous fools, fear you not that your accursed afflictions fail?
Contemptuous cretins, be you so conceited to think love you can kill?

Distance be damned, for love can’t be broken at any lamentable length,
And trivial time you are but a second thought to love’s eternal strength!
