Love Suffers Alone

Stealing your joy I bought pleasure Taking your courage I spent on my fears You gave me comfort Embracing my love Charming every season No matter the weather Never saying a word About how much you hurt That's how I learned Love suffers alone When every hug rests Upon empty shoulders April 23, 2018

Another great write Vijay ! Love is often painful. In our eagerness to be loved we expect too much or draw out too much from others, never caring to stand with them in their trials and sorrows, especially if they never complain

Hi Vijay, I love the way you express your thoughts in this write. Deep poetry, written simply. Love is a two way street, if it becomes one way it becomes fragmented. Love the content Vijay. have a wonderful Saturday. Your friend always....Mike.

What a wonderful insight into loving and being loved. Oftentimes, we get so wrapped up or carrried away with being the object of someone's affection that we forget their need to be loved too or the need to reciprocate! Excellent write, my dear Vijay! Best wishes. Pandita

Very deep, selfish and painful Vijay. A sign of a great poet is writing pleasure and pain and you do both wonderfully.

Giving and receiving...although there are times when we take things for granted and don't realize that a person might be sacrificing herself to give love to others. ~ Regards // paul

Vijay, great lines to ponder to thyself review to see if the same we're doing too. Sometimes we get so caught up in ourselves, we don't see or realise we're starving to death the Love another feels for us and we take their Love for granted. All the best to you. :) ~ Artsie
