"the Break Up"

when you are feeling hurt,sad,weak and lonely,
just remember all the lies,secrets,cheating...he was always a phoney,
take it step by step...one day at a time and be strong,
right from the start and all the way through...you knew he was wrong,
a beautiful baby boy came from this doomed romance,
deep down it was always on borrowed time ...just like the very last dance,
in time your broken heart will mend and there will be no more tears,
then you will look back and wonder...why him leaving filled you with so many fears !!

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.

Two best friends just broke up recently and finally he was able to tell me he was ready to end it because he realised the woman he saw now is not the woman he married. God is healing this man as you say one step at a time. It nothing short of a miracle, he was so devoted. True poem
