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?
