After Our Love Had Passed

 

 

After our love had passed

So many words that cut and bled

I had to stop thinking we could last

I’ll  try to forget the desire to hear love from your lips

As I sit and think of all the sadness we brought

Trying to forget our tender lips that once kissed

 

 

I have to forget the softness and smiles from you

A misty view from eyes filled with tears

I’ll try not to love you as much as I do

 

 

I loved you dear heart for so many years

Saddened by all the promises that faded and died

As painful memories come into play

Knowing we’ll never walk together side by side

 

      Trying to find a way for my heart’s malaise

      To accept the end of us on this warm, autumn day

      Of our star crossed love that could not last

 

       Perhaps things we didn’t want to happen

       But had to learn to accept

       T hings we didn’t  want to know

      Of you and I ,

       Thinking we couldn’t live without one another

       But  had  to realize we needed to let go

 

 

I cry for the times you were almost mine

I cry for the memories we left behind

I cry for the pain, the loss, the old, the new

I cry for the timesI thought I had you...

But never really did

Authors note:

Love shouldn’t  hurt so much

Losing someone hurts, rejection hurts

But we shouldn’t  confuse this with love

Love should not be selfish

It should be patient and kind

It is not self-seeking

It  should protect, trust, hope and always persevere

Because in reality ' True Love' is the only thing

That  covers all the pain

And makes us feel wonderful and whole again*___________________________

Endearment - Words of endearment along with a special note - Wonderful!

We as writer's have the gift to cover each other's pain...

[hmm]

I really enjoyed the font you used, Like the intensity as well.
I could feel the hurt and sadness, well written.
