Clasp this grasp

So do I crawl from here on bloodied knees?
Or do I stay within the last embrace,
to carry and to take?
Surely hurt can't last my lifetime.
Surely tears are dried to husk.
Surely love still counts the most.

A strange obsession, hands to reach.
I'm lead and bronze
though lost beneath.
Push me far to test each fear,
I promise I won't leave you here.
You remain my darling,
through storms, through years.
Through every heart break,
ache, each take,
each barren fall beneath,
no break.

Pain is part of love......and you captured it here.... :)

Thanks Sue. I enjoy the resolute determination of the last lines most of all. Thanks for 'getting' it
