Candor

Across a chasm, hearts may yearn,

But silence builds a wall to spurn.

A bridge of candor, strong and true,

In healthy love, sees us on through.

No whispered doubts, no hidden fears,

We share our laughter, share our tears.

Concerns unfurl, like banners bright,

In open air, they lose their might.

Respect arises, hand in hand,

As honest truths we understand.

From clash of views, a stronger thread,

Through open hearts, the words are said.

Like weathered stone, the bond takes hold,

With conflict faced, a story told.

No hidden hurts, no festering wound,

In candor's light, true love is found.
