Too Much

So much pain
comes with so much love.
It is a gift sent
from below and above.

If I had known 
about this hurt,
I would have tried
to stop the words.

If I had known 
about this love,
I would of flew 
into it like a dove.

But I hadn't known 
and it's too late.
This hurt is
too much to sedate.

Much hurt is absorbed as we grow Cheyenne. One will get used to it, and love so nice can hurt so bad >> James :)

Yes, you have rightly said, with love comes the pain, but it is almost sweet, Cheyenne
