Last Days of Winter

Our three-fold cord was braided for strength 
but it's unraveled and has come unbound 

We are two idle hands of a timeless clock 
that for too long have been left unwound
 
A pair of mute swans, swimming in circles
lost in confusion, neither uttering a sound

In the last days of winter the sky is gloomy
If the sun breaks through love may be found
