Shake Me

Lovely, you’re lovely— Your heart is full of lovely. You are growing within my life; All without of you just pines. My lovely, my inward gash before others recoils so tight— Only you can veil my heart in your lovely sight. Your known Rosetta failed my dark— Colored you instead on every scar. Rending is the undone kiss— Left, in the pain, alone this. For the chains I’m bracing under this mask— Please, save me forever, please stay, please last.

Heartbreak and fear of loss are hard to experience and harder to understand. Thanks for sharing your feelings through your poetry, Paige. Blessings my friend. Bill

Love is a feeling, not a permanent condition. We must now proceed. I've experienced such awful pain before. There was also a loss of friends and love. You have to keep going because God is the greatest.

Ah, Paige. Love does not always last. Bot so what? We move on. I know the excruciating pain. Lost love, lost friends. You move on, God is the ultimate love. People are not God….sometimes , though we care for someone, we find out we believed in a nobody, who used our Trust for their gain. You still are the winner. ~~~Users are losers~~~ Pangie Deep couplets!
