Crystal Tears

Crystal tears a blue tribute 
Trailing down face of fool
Who told you to trust love
Only dreams are of such stuff

Jilted woman or man who hoped
love from another person would grow
Perhaps ending in disappointment 
Resilient or not needing anointed 

Can one love despite being pained
By the loss of what was a hoped gain
Perhaps yes or maybe a neon no
Look inside find love for which you hoped

May your poem provide a wake up call for the struggling hopefuls. I can still feel the poetic kick. Lol. Decisions seem to take practice.

We seek this love, hope for it, find it in some measure. The greatest love is towards God and He truly reciprocates.
