Not Destined For Each Other

Game  of  god   or  a  way  of  life  …
Fate left  me  so   weak   and   tiny.
Forbidden  love  ; a  trick  of  life.
Passion  alights  in   brevity.

Years   back  ,  decision   hard  I  made.
     Game  of  god   or  a  way  of  life  …
A last  kiss  and   goodbye  I bade,
Shattered,  I could   not   be  his  wife.

Lived  in   hope  ; love has afterlife.
He came back  to   hold  me  in   maze  
     Game  of  god   or  a  way  of  life  …
At  my  door  he stood  like   in   daze. 

Patient! Time   stood   with  nurse's  word.
Ethic  was  fighting   emotion, 
His  wife  sat  beside  him. Absurd!
     Game  of  god   or  a  way  of  life  …

Winged Warrior Date: 7/31/2016 11:34:00 AM Love builds and Love destroys in so many ways...great write...is it God or is it US...god bless...^WW^ Login to Reply Sunita U.D Palawon Date: 7/31/2016 11:04:00 PM I do agree, once I used to think having love reciprocated is a boon but when this is achieved and there's lost, you are just held in an emotional block thinking what went wrong? Thanks for going through and your comment. :)Sunita

Sandra Haight Date: 7/31/2016 10:53:00 AM So emotionally expressed in your well-written Quatern with the repetitive line that questions the 'why', Sunita.
