All Or Nothing Poem by Peter S. Quinn

I have always tried
But times are roughing
Those life knots tied
Everything is between
And going nowhere
Love needs to be seen
To be around here

It’s so lonesome
To give and make
And nothing returning from
Its thought’s awake
Like the rain outside
It fills all in vain
Sorrows trial abide
From its wasted gain

All or Nothing
Like the tides going
Its circles round abolishing
Weaving water glowing
Far the deep echoes
Nothing returns again
Love comes and goes
In its joy and pain
