Balance Is Kept

When weighing smiles and frowns in life,
Hope ensures that balance is kept.
But the scale tips ominously
under the sheer weight of tears wept.
Lovers form a duality,
sharing their feelings day and night.
And fear cringes in the shadows,
which quickly disperse under light.
The pursuit of a soulmate has
unavoidable side effects.
For the passion behind love takes
feelings; places the heart protects.
Time heals hurting hearts like magic,
providing that feelings survive.
And trust realigns confused thoughts,
helping fantasies come alive.
Purging anguish from memories,
time erases tears of regret.
And resuscitates dying dreams;
all but the ones you should forget.
