Not All Men Are the Same

You want to live for something
but afraid of that four letter word
'Love'
Someone hurt your heart it made
you locked it away, and up tight
only you hold the key.
Someday you'll meet that person you
want to be with but your will be afraid to
'Love' back.
for he might just hurt you again like the
others.
You want to share with him the fear of 
why it is so hard for you to be close and to
'Love',
him but you decide it is worth the risk this
time. 
So the heart was unlocked,she was very
careful opening it a bit at a time.
'Love' no longer bothers her because she
learned not all men are the same.

Cecil Hickman July 9, 2010 at 9:19 PM love can truly be painful,,but like a great poet has said before,,it is better to have loved and lost,,then to have never loved at all,,these words I have lived and relived many times,,and i agree love is something no one should ever live without,,,for if they never have love then thier heart is truly broken,,,Blessings..Cecil
