A Valentine Day Bummer

So much is said of true love And how it is sure to last I don’t believe all that fluff I have wisely moved on passed Love lasts for a short, sweet time Until he sees the baggage The one he called a goddess Has turned into a cabbage He looks passed the roses red And sees only prickly thorns Her halo just seems to slip And now all he sees are horns The one who made her heart beat Now just makes her want to die All that he see are her faults No matter how hard she tries Perhaps I am just morose I ran out of pills today Tomorrow may be different Love might be here to stay!

Of course I believe in true love. I love my hubby....Of course..having said that, we must realize that sometimes love is not just a feeling...it is a decision. We chose to love because we have made a commitment. That's just as much Love as anything else. Also...true love is found in its source...God, and is reflected in the words of I Corinthians 13. Sometimes the fervor and passion comes and goes...but underneath it all is love! :)

Amen to that. I like the photo of you and your husband.

I can tell you it exists, twenty one years and counting. I also know what it feels to have my heart broken. I am sorry if this is where you are right now. Few words help when you are feeling this way. Hugs Rick

We've all loved and lost, Eileen, but still...true love is real...just that we don't all love as we should. Great write you have here. Thanks for reading mine. Always, Annalise
