The agony of love lost pierces the heart
and contorts the soul.
Betrayal severs forever bonds,
draining the heart of love and the soul of faith.
You call upon feelings
your heart stored in memory;
to carry you through this ordeal.
Because love and hate hold opposite
sides of the same coin,
luck magnifies expectations.
We all have egos and pride,
often to our detriment when young;
freshly weaned off innocence.
You feel you know your future; then, bam;
fate's fake facade crumbles.
Falling out of love
empties your heart, tear by tear.
And sadness surges from your core;
melding with reality in quiet acceptance.
Lost in deceit's frightening fog;
you break out laughing and crying simultaneously!
Life's a conundrum; it seems receptive to your wants
yet non-responsive to your needs.
True love is elusive; doubt haunts its fringes,
but so, too, does hope!
A spontaneous eruption of feelings
that doesn't respect rules and conditions;
love is hard to categorize,
for it seldom adheres to logic or accepted norms.
