I know, I know... depressing, right?! Sorry! I don't feel this way right now but a long time ago, I did. It's crazy what we allow our feelings and emotions to do to us when we have been hurt in love. The key word being, crazy. Anyone who gets to the point of truly wanting to die because of a broken heart is no longer in their right mind.

All I can say is that I'm so grateful for the loved ones in my life at that time, and to my heavenly Father, who pulled me through a time when I could no longer be trusted to think clearly. If I'd been allowed to take the consequences of my actions, I'd not be here today, I'd never have met the love of my life, my husband of 17 years, nor had 2 children I love beyond measure.

So, if you are at a point in life, as I was so long ago, that you feel you can't go on... please, Seek help! A loved one or make a phone call to people who volunteer to talk to those who feel like you are feeling because they truly care about you. CALL OR TEXT 988Someone will be there to talk with you 24 hours a day!

Also, if you've never talked to God in prayer, I promise you He desires to hear from you... He loves you! He is the one who created your soul because He wanted YOU! As I can attest, Good things are just beyond the next bend...God bless you and keep you. Xoxo

No longer a witness, though not by choice I still hear your smile In your exuberant voice Memories in my mind's eye Bring it all back again Can you still hear me cry No I never spoke words untrue When I said, I'd die for you. Cause I never, ever lied When I swore, when I swore I'd love you till I died. You broke my heart, my body and soul I was bound up with you, you made me whole Now, those ties that bind Are cut away, so I drift alone in pain No I never spoke words untrue When I said, I'd die for you. Cause I never, ever lied When I swore, when I swore I'd love you till I died. So baby, when you hear I've gone away, don't shed a tear And baby, when you realize I was true, until the day I died Maybe regret will fill your heart It's too late now we're apart No I never spoke words untrue When I said, I'd die for you. Cause I never, ever lied When I swore, when I swore I'd love you till I died. Yea this is good bye And I loved you, I loved you, I Loved You till I died.

My goodness Crystol, thank you for sharing your personal life experience. Your poem is emotional, so glad you were able to get over that phase. It is so close to my latest musical/video posting 'Bound by Love, Broken by Fate' Stay well and keep writing - Maria

I thought for sure I had commented on this. Hmmm. Anyway it would make an excellent country song, right up there with - He stopped loving her today. Knowing a little of your backstory I get this. Are you gonna post an audio?

Dear Crystol, so much emotions and the devastation that failed love brings on the soul haunting our well being. I realize every devastation is a time of growth and pruning. Your words drew a lot of emotions and empathy in me. Thanks for being open and to see God working in your life. Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel

We all must go through that testing and pruning although it hurts it does bring growth as you say. I appreciate all your feedback so much! Xo

Whether by death or something else, can leave some wanting to just fade into oblivion! This really made me feel so much! Every word speaks to the soul of the reader. Sending you light always

Yess, it was long ago and a love I had no business being in but we don't really choose... maybe we choose who to be with and around but not who our hearts will love so deeply. Tysm for sharing your thoughts about my writing! Xo
