Poetic Love

I read poems on love and lost love
of happiness and  heartbreak
Of passion and the fire it makes
of all twists and turns it can take
how love is at stake.

The words of wisdom made me laugh
words of misfortune  made me cry
some lite the world on fire
others slowly let love die
only they know reasons why.

The end of this is heart wrenching. So true. We all experience love differently and only we know our truths of how our story goes. Sigh..

Well written Phyllis. This explains it well, with all we find when we read poetry. :)
