Regrets

love is so hard to requite when sin has killed desire where there was once a desprite need now the smoke of an extinguished fire the empire where there was a throne that sparkled with streets of gold crumbled into disrepair a slum of dry rot, mildew and mold love was an idol truely a god to behold a million promises to ones self over and over told dilusions of grandure and hopes that lured the way a blindness created that explained iniquities away an unselfish giving as love would endure a life style of living with a dream soundly secured writen in stone this thing so pure proteceted by my love so sure until that day... until that day yet i have never stoped loving you with all my power i cannot pause my affection for one single hour mine is to suffer endlessly and to never forget your name from this day forward I'll always feel the same i'll always take you back no matter what you do it's a given fact that i'll always love you no matter what you are to me you'll always have my heart no matter what you do to me you'll always own a part so with this wounded heart i still give my life to you with a foolish heart i swear my love to you

You show so much emotion in this poem John. I think we all have regrets at one time or another and then go forward with life but we always have the memories. soup mail

John, I truly enjoyed reading this one..Does there come a time when love dies? I just wonder..One can be wounded over and over by someone that they love but with time that love springs back to life..Enjoyed reading..Thanks for stopping by..I said hello to the Atlantic..She was whipping a fairly high surf..Sara

So passionately full of remorse, suffering and emotion but still that glimmer of hopeas you come to the end. For some, love is the craziest of all ecstasies and despair we experience. Maybe it doesn't even make sense but it is so hard to be without it I think. Just an amazing write John, can't read it without feeling all you say in this. Luv, Elizabeth
