Love Nuance

There I was doing introspection on life or maybe not life, just love... I’m positive that when the essence of love Was thought off no pain went into it. So why are we going through just as much pain, when we experience love? Maybe we don’t know what real love entails what makes us choose so wrong? I'm sure if we had a GPS of where a relationship would end up we would not pursue it but in our quest, we sometimes look back and reckon it must have been special for it to last that long, but heaven knows… God never intended for hurt to be part of love so why do we punish ourselves? Cling to something or someone That does not reflect love? Only heartache and broken promises, in the end closing ourselves off to the possibilities out there, turning ourselves off from that thing called REAL LOVE?

We never think of the pain when we first enter relationships, Wilma. That comes later if they fall apart. Indeed, God didn't intend for us to be hurt; we make our own paths in life that lead to either happiness or sadness. Excellent poem! Love, Carolyn
