Cosmic Joke, Heavy Yoke

When they put things into motion, all those long ago years,
Did the Gods know the earth would be drowned in oceans of tears?
Did they know the pain the Lovers would face, torn apart, soul and heart,
And even in time, at this date,  when Twins are meeting each other too late,
Hearts are broken, kept apart by cruel Karmic fate,
Seeing their Beloved in the arms of another mate.

Be patient and wait, we are told time and again,
Let all unfold in Time Divine,  not the ways of men,
Do not interfere...as if we could with everything on their terms
Their choice to answer or ignore our voice, keeping us secret
A fantasy, protecting themselves from wrath of family
Long-distance lover not a priority.
IF caught, denied as just a friend, in this game that will never end.

If Twin Love is needed to bring to birth, the New Beginning of the Earth,
With such great Love, to last Forever,
Why are so many not together?
Is this whole thing just another Illusion,
Fraught with danger and Confusion?
How many hearts will yet be broke,
Under this Love's heavy yoke,
All for a cruel Cosmic Joke?
