This is a time of extraordinary hope. What makes a couple think their love's for life? The passion comes and goes as couples cope With what it means to be a man and wife. Love that lasts is more than just a feeling, More than ecstasy or tenderness, More than empathy, however healing, More than affection, joy, or happiness. All these are love, and yet they will not last Without a daily, conscious act of will. The bridge between the future and the past Is the choice to love through good and ill. Love can be for life, but only when The choice is made again, again, again. Copyright by Nicholas Gordon. Free for personal or non-commercial use.
