My Betrothed

what are we can we be defined what's our status what cannot be denied words can be spoken and gestures give us signs but when i say i love you can it be defined we give ourselves emotions when to laugh and when to cry but we can't control emotions they are like wild horses we ride we give ourselves to pain to feel deep inside you cannot say it hurts but it's harmful to your pride pride that makes you stand when you feel you want to fall pride that doesn't give up when you give your all and all but pride too can be broken and make us the walking dead an empty shell upon us for emotions not being said don't feel this , don't feel that and especially don't feel love don't feel like anything special just might come from up above love is just an illusion that reason cannot tame tell me: what it is between us, does it have a name? can i wish, can i pray or even dare to hope can i see it clearly if i use a microscope if i use my feelings will they prove me wrong are these words meant for healing or just another sad sad song can't i believe in destiny that seems to come from God or am i just chasing a dream and really should move on my heart it waits for answers that only you can give what we have between us will it die or will it live

Love can turn our life upside down and inside out. Questions, confusion, doubt, pain, a pile of raw emotion that is love. A touching poem coming from the heart. Hugs my friend it will get better God Bless Phyl
