Woven ties, the noose created
By ravelled lines of lies we spun.
Dying now, our end thus fated
Woven ties. The noose created
And bound us both, in bittered hatred.
Deserts of just one carefree run,
Woven ties the noose created
By ravelled lines of lies we spun.

Though snow lies deep on drowsy soil,
Heart’s warmth blooms awaiting spring.
Each changing season shifting toil.
Though snow lies deep on drowsy soil,
Summer’s heat being winter’s foil,
Fields are fertile and forests sing.
Though snow lies deep on drowsy soil.
Heart’s warmth blooms awaiting spring.

Is it my imagination or does this get harder the more you try it?

Upon the bank, a crane resides
The interest in her nest egg grows
Deposits safe, the brood abides
Upon the bank, a crane resides
Her stock returns, and she provides
A tender bill for warm repose
Upon the bank, a crane resides
The interest in her nest egg grows

In silent watch before the leap,
The lustful tiger pants and sneaks,
Her hunger crawling, wrenching deep
In silent watch before the leap.
Near quarry blissful in mock keep,
Her craving thrives and in sin peaks,
In silent watch before the leap.
The lustful tiger pants and sneaks.

We shared one life so long ago;
The void you left remains unfilled.
My sole bedmate a cold pillow,
We shared one life so long ago.
My friends pity the sad widow,
Believing all my passion stilled.
We shared one life so long ago;
The void you left remains unfilled.

Considering it's only five unique lines, this was a lot harder than I thought it would be! :)

Good luck everyone.
