First, Second and Third Poem

Harsh words were spoken
Many promises were broken
The joy in our hearts got frozen and
The pain is a token of the enduring spirit of the soul

My first poem was for the woman I loved
My second poem was about the lies that this love expressed and
My third poem was about the pain I felt inside

The story unfolds
Life demands that we be bold
Even when life turns cold but
We need to hold on to the purity of love

The first poem was for the woman I loved
The second poem was for the lies that this love expressed and
The third poem was about the pain I felt inside

Meeting love at the wrong time
Showed me how to love at the right time
“No love is ever wrong,
If it did not give you what you want
It taught you what you don’t want.”
