Fret Not

Fret not, my love
If you forsake me
Buried in promises
And words left unsaid.

Remember, my love
That once you desert me
Not even your shadow
May weave its way home.

Woe not, my love
Should you forget me
For today’s lament
Breeds tomorrow’s strength.

Good luck, my love
In trying to redeem me
And the unbridled passion
I left at your side.

What’s that, my friend?
Too late, I’ve replaced you
With a burgeoning love
That thirsts for my soul.

Rejoice, my love
For we have erected
A footing of steel
Where dust had collected.

“Fret Not” is part of the “Forget Me Not” trilogy"
