Broken Hearted Cheater

She stays with her unfaithful guy The way she was raised the reason why Living with and loving him for half her life He in return gives her a life full of strife She asks herself does she love him still But, knows in her heart she always will Her vows she honored till death did they part Years later her unfaithful guy died of a broken heart Entry: This Contest~~~ It's Up To You Written by: Carol Brown 1st Place Winner Entered this poem in P.D.'s contest because it seems the sponsor I had written it for thought it needed worked on. This does happen in life but maybe I could have explained it better.(I worked so hard to get the message across)

This poem really hits home with me in so many ways...faithfulness seems to either not be rewarded or when it is, it is way toooo late. I know so many people who fit in this category. Congrats on this awesome and heart-stirring write. Love, Gwendolen

A superb magnificent write sketching the true feelings and suppressed emotions of man & woman facing such a situation. Great write my friend, it is always a joy to read and ponder on your Poems. My good wishes for your entry in the contest & thank you for your kind words on my Dewali day Poem. I am not regular now days due to a new kind of social work I have started to promote sports for the young boys and girls in some of our remote villages. Love & best wishes always.Ravindra ..C. Brown

* “These The Ebbs & Flows of Love * To Embrace, To Endure, To Rejoice, To Cry * But If Two Make It Through These Storms & One Day Realize * The Gift of Love That Withstood The Test of Time * From Coal to Diamonds Amid Beauty Refined * A Broken Heart Can Come & Often Does But, With Every Dusk There Arrives Always A Dawn * It Is Faith Which We Serve, My Dear Beautiful Carol * Breakfast At Tiffiney's * Luv * Sarah.” *

A fine job here Carol. Reminds me of my Aunt Sue. Her husband was always unfaithful to her and she was going to leave him but when her son was born he was very sick and they didn't know if he would live. She prayed and said if God would let her son live she would stay with heer cheatng husband. She kept heer vow until her husband died. Great job. God Bless, JB
