My great love

Pain of love lost must disappear into the wind.

                    My great love

Do we support to love but once?

Where have my ancient lover's gone?

Chain of passion and spiritual journeys leave
me with kind faces in dreams.

Everlasting smiles so rare they scar my heart and mind.

Are we love victims and the heart must die?

If the bleeding is unable to stop.

I believe we need closure to allow the open wound
to fade to a scar.

I remember trembling and soft hands opening the doors
taking the chill of the cold night away.

Cold Winter and rough weather allow the comfort of
two people to find peace for a time.

I remember the comfort of long nights.
Sweet joy of love dances in early morning.
The smell of skin and twisted hair against me.

My wrath took away the sweet memories and opening
of precious love and emotion.

Now sweet love bade me welcome.
My soul cannot see the beauty that dwells in my
sweet lover's eyes.

I sit upon the sand near the Atlantic ocean.
The sea winds is blowing from east to west.

I pray to the sea to allow my spirit to be able
to run free and be clean again.

The night revealed.
Beautiful auburn hair woman come to me.
Whisper we must live to love.

We must dance with the moon and stars.
Allow the sun to open our heart to a new day and beginning.

We will have many great lovers.
Our life is long and we shall be tested.

How we always yearn for our spirit to be free..and as all the beautifully etched lines of your poems express only love can make it free...unlocking the past and floating in the present merging with it's essence.

But isn't love more then the love of a man for a woman or a woman for a man? "Our life is long and we shall be tested." The love of a parent for a child, child for a parent, brother for sister, sister for brothers and neighbor for neighbor? True past loves haunt us, but they shouldn't. Each writes their memories on our souls.

Wow, this was incredibly good! I can't just pull out one specific line that I liked the most- but there were many good ones, if not all.

Great poem, as far as critiques go I know nothing about poetry so I can make no corrections. An enjoyable read though keep up the work.

Love never hurts. Our unfulfilled expectations, misguided faith and inability to think beyond our personal desires can cause us much grief however. So the answer lies in learning to love without expectation; without putting another human being on a pedastal as a thing of perfection, but realizing they have flaws and problems, troubles and worries the same as ourselves; and finally, in learning to see beyond our vanity, pride and personal desires to the needs and fulfillment of others; their rights, hopes, dreams and aspirations. That, in my opinion is the cure to every heartache.
