Lost Valentine

Her pain was unbearable* 
Desperation overwhelmed her being
She amassed as much courage as she could and 
Fervently prayed 

She supplicated the divine for strength for to
Heal her wounds that were afflicted upon her heart
By
The insensitivity of a man just before Valentine's,
Incessantly she prayed love in life to find for not
Her heart, perpetually, suffer

       
Her prayers, incense of virtuous thoughts, ascended
The heavens, 
Became celestial dew that turned into tears of 
Supplication, 
God witnessed her drama and the sincerity of her plea
Thus 
An angel downwards at once He sent the torch of hope
In her heart to rekindle 
Thus
Consolation in the arms of awaiting love, her to find!

have missed her heart!

My dearest poetess, every woman and every man, I would add, deserves to be LOVED! When love is in our hearts, no wounds are possible! May the Good Lord open the gates of love for you to inundate your tender and thirsty for love soul! Thank you for your superlative comment which I hardly deserve! God bless you!
