Time and Love

You are mine for all of time But I'm not yours . You came into my life At a bad time When i truly hated who I was and what I had become. I was broken , damaged and fighting . But you fought your way and saved me. You loved me and by doing so , You made me love myself. To one from two, we said i do . We promised to love each other as long As the sun burns in the sky, As long as the moon shines Its light into the dark night, Until the raging blue oceans Become calm and turn dry . But now that I have Become old and less beautiful, You chose to leave me and Find the place your heart belonged to . Should I blame time for making me wrinkled and weak ? Or should I blame time for making you Meet someone prettier than me . At the end ,I have learnt a thing ! Time doesn't heal anything . It just teaches us how to live with the pain And now even without you , I'm strong , happy and hopeful.

Keep your head up, shallow fish rarely reach the depth necessary for true happyness. Let that punk stay on the surface of things, chasing validation.

This poem is full of optimism and confidence. Welcome to Poetry Soup Ayeisha. I liked this part so much "You loved me and by doing so , You made me love myself." as it applies to me also after meeting my man who has built me up. Even if he runs off, it was enough. For I am strong, happy and hopeful also. Blessings my friend!
