Set Up and Starting Again

I was trying to hesitate From going on a blind date But my friends took the lead Saying it's just what I need My love life's been in a spin My heart always pulling in When I saw someone was getting Way too close I was not letting My emotions run too wild I became so weak and mild Since my life has always been A trampoline for all the men That's been bouncing in and out True love I knew nothing about Every time I tried to feel Something so precious and real They would go and not come back My heart always felt the smack Of another door slammed shut Never knowing why or what I keep repelling them away Why can't just one of them stay Longer than a month or so With no reason they must go So when my friends said they knew Someone faithful and so true It was hard believing such A man would not hurt me as much Like everyone else has done Always being on the run My courage and faith was thin Trying to find love again But I sat down so politely But my heart was treading lightly Hours of talking went by I was trying not to cry Hearing him tell tales of Being left by those he loved It was like he was my clone Left so stranded and alone We just stared and couldn't speak As tears rolled down both our cheeks Knowing it was destiny For both of us here to be Fixed up with another heart That's been broken all apart

I hope that he is your true love, and that you can stay together forever. No one should have to be alone with a broken heart. I have actually experienced this same thing recently. I had a broken heart and so did he. So, we had a lot in common! I really liked this poem, Robin! Very well expressed!

I love the ending on this one. To find someone else who knows how you feel, that is a wonderful thing.
