Substituting lies for the truth, passion's flame erupts, all ablaze. And you shed the innocence of youth, stumbling blindly within love's maze. Nagging doubts establish new norms, morphing into a silent scream. And caught in emotional storms, your heart is reluctant to dream. Feeling love switching directions, you find it difficult to cope. And severing all connections, trickling tears douse embers of hope. Subjected to heartache and pain, you suffer love's tribulations. And yet, you'd do it all again, despite any hesitations.

Pain persists, yet we can't resist but love. Beautiful composition.

Emile, one of the better writes I've read this week. It's the pain of lost innocence and the loss of love all rolled into one and presented in the most exquisite wording. A sad yet beautifully written piece!

When I think about it, I think I'd pass. I was married for over 25 years and one day it was over. No real reason, just over. No, I'll pass on doing it again. However, i really love the poem. You are a terrific writer:)
