Love and Loss

Love and Loss
©January, 2014

They say it is better
To have loved and lost,
Than to have never loved
 And have emotions tossed.

To see a loved one
Go carelessly astray,
Is difficult to do more 
Than to diligently pray.

To hope that someday
Their return you’ll see,
Is a constant prayer
That you earnestly plea.
