"the Road of Love"

If my tears can fill a bucket...
Then my smile shall fill the sky...
If my hurt never came...
Then my love would never hide...
Without a fall or a trip, my heart
would have no aim...
If my scars healed to fast, then
there's nothing left to gain...
Walk with shoes that feel the ground...
And true love will call and always be found...
Lick your wounds and heal away...
And your heart will tick to a better day...

Getting over the pain. Pushing through it and coming out better and stronger because of it. You learn to love different after the pain. Love lost is a big issue for me. Love this one too Michael. Monica
