The Story of Love

The story of love


The story of love 
is woven 
with silken threads
on a cloud in heaven
where no one sees

Love brings happiness
yes
but we all forget the pain
the sorrows the sadness the strain

It is woven to trap us
with beauty and richness
but behind it all
is fear and sadness

We all fall in love
but do we all obtain it?
no, we've lost it

Now we are lonely
this is how it is
a wondrous mystery.

Robin L. Gass January 9, 2009 at 9:44 AM Maryam, this a beautiful and heart felt piece. It is sad how love can tear us apart. Young or old or in between. No one is safe. But hopefully, it makes your heart grow and the next time (and especially when you're young, there usually a next time) we learn more about ourselves and what we want. It just takes time to heal. No one escapes the scars, though. Awesome write! Love and a BIG HUG, Robin
