Nothing to Say or Do

Nothing she could say or do

could make him love her less,

She is his angel in a world or sin,

his guiding light when the paths grow dark.

Nothing she could say or do

could make him see her differently.

She is his rose with just enough thorns,

his hope when there is nothing left.

Nothing she could say or do

could make him miss her less.

She was the voice that kept him going,

the lungs that kept him breathing.

Nothing he could say or do

could bring her back from His grasp.

She is the reason for our grieving

but she's also the reason our hearts keep beating.

Love tainted optimism can make for the most insidious kind of rose colored glasses. But it can also strengthen an already strong bond under the right condition.
