Just a Poem

The sound of a heart aching
is nothing to compare 
to the crash of one breaking
over a love so rare...
 
To play this wildly exciting game
you need strength and will
because true love you can never tame
and the heart must never stand still...
 
The challenge of a lover 
yet to understand
tears your soul from its cover
and makes you see dry land...
