Tricky Love

Love can be tricky, you see
Never is the way, you wish it to be
That one person, you love with all your heart
Making plans, right from the start
Time passes, and things start to shift
Your chest now weighs, of a million and one bricks
You hold on, never wanting to let go
Now your heart fell down, falling so low
You pray, you wish, for things to come around
But as time passes, you fall closer to the ground
You try to forget, all the wasted shed tears
Never thought losing them, could be your biggest fear
The pain is unbearable, as you hang on by a thread
Tears pool in your eyes, as you try not to let them shed
Take a deep breath, and exhale slowly
Wondering when in life, you became so lonely

I enjoyed reading your poetry this morning Brianna. I hope you have a wonderful weekend. I am going to see if I can write something for a couple contests this weekend. Hope you find the inspiration to do the same. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours. Love, Carol
