My heart will always be expecting good times 
many hearts expect good times
their future lies in expectation of positive futures
there is no substance to save the soul when expectation dies
There are reasons for the break but no rationale
but love will always be here, everybody says
Isn’t love supposed to be forever?
For better or worse?
Sometimes, one wonders if this is true
yet we, the older ones, who have gone through the fires of sex hell, still had to let our ardor ferment 
The question persists, do we have true love or play love?
What does it take for our love to be true love?
well, true love needs time to ferment
Like a good apple cider or a good cigar soaked in aged brandy
play love does not need anything
In that span of time, hormones will take over and go wild
and understanding love is shot to the four winds
to fester until true love grabs a hold of you
and shows the realities of what the object of true Love is
Realities that make it easier to see the truth
How much love there was at the beginning
or how much truth was there in your heart when you said I love you
then chores and responsibilities became too much to bear
and the mirages of a Hollywood romance movie evaporated
Love is forged in the fires of necessity and affection
Love also has its roots in affection and caring
Love grows strongest where the self is subjugated to your mate
It is also most powerful when one sees holiness in the home
Love is forever, that is true
but it has to be earned daily, grind by grind
it is a blessing when we appreciate our mates 
and the daily burdens they endure for the family
Bliss can be had if we understand 
that marriage is a commitment to a marathon
of two lives living together unknown to each other
but learning fast about life, year end and year out
True love then, is a combination of sweet odors and ingrown toenails
The good news is you will weather all marriage storms forever
if you paid attention to the real meaning of true love
and greeting it with huge smiles from lives well tried with love 
and understanding ingrown toe nails.
