Love Poem: Forgetfulness

Forgetfulness

All bound in love ~ all the goodness
I had  wrought
was still upon the edge
the worst that I have fought!

The dredge
and wondering why, did ask
forgetfulness of hurt
 ~ was such a task!

Ne'er seine the diadem of choice
that I might alter my true voice
an arching, not of destiny, but force
the good that still prevails ~ endorse!

The fathering of fate, the populus goal
while mine, endearment, guides my soul
as to the balance ~ intercept
the good and evil, both have wept!

That joy denounce the evil God has kept
my praver in retrospect ~ His care
that so arrive within His gate
not swear to either ~ too innate!

To further vestige, last and without hate
while plying love for goodness under-rate,
It be forgetfulness that must be weight
upon the bridge of time's relate!

Where neither binds the fool's abate
nor seals up love . . . too tight to mate!
