A Wonderous Virtue

I have had my heart torn to pieces From inexplicable pain and devotion, Sown seeds of trust and reaped distrust, I have gardened it, in dry stormy deserts and in green plains, And garnered nixes as deserved and underserved, I have grown fonder in loneliness, yet attached, Earned pain and immortal reminiscence, I have had mine broken, as I may have broken others, Reaped a share of emotional intoxication, I have let my passion flow, into bottomless pits, Yet, in all this madness, I find no wondrous virtue, Than to love, be it in the rains or in the suns, Inconsiderate of its start or its end.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
