Combative Souls




Two souls are joined
To form one love,
Pushed together by
An unseen shove.
Once they were strangers-
Combative souls.
Now they're lovers
Until they grow old.
Destined for love
Were these two
With friendship's guide
To see them through.
The love they shared
Blossomed and grew
As does the flower
that pushes through
The ashes and ruins
Of mankind's war
To meet the water
On a barren shore.
It meets the sun
And stems with its love,
Reaching out to
The light from above.
