The stone

Ah,did you throw away the ripened fruit
Because inside it hid a hardened stone?
As anything not total does not suit
Love’s ambivalence seems to you a crime.

Don’t throw away my love when I offend
For I am human too and lose my sense
As tension makes it difficult to bend
And sometimes even love is too intense.

Rather , see how much love there still may be
And balance that against my human faults
Instead , one mark ,one sin one thought unfree
Weighs more than years of love ,binds me in guilt.

As panic will grow less when we can wait
In such a way , our love can outweigh  hate
