even after all I've/we've been through - the blood, sweat, tears, pain, betrayal, sorrow and regrets

cold realities, hard truths and uncomfortable admissions of guilt

love tarnished, tainted and tattered, bonds beaten, bruised and broken

I still have hope

perhaps things will never be as they once were, perhaps that's a good thing

stars shine and die, the moon hides the sun for but a moment, love may lessen but can also blossom

ends usher new beginnings and with hope and love, nothing is ever truly lost
