Unquiet Love

Serious trouble!
Shooting barbs at 
     each other
While the moonlight shines 
      overhead
   Once there was 
a "kind of love"
But the illusion 
may have passed
     Shards of what 
was 
    exist in the 
even
g shadows
    If we can light up 
    the flame again 
          Then we came warm ourselves 
together
          But an uneasy 
  feeling 
is growing
          Let us have 
peace
          Let us enjoy 
the time we have 
          left 
Love is a gust of wind
passing quickly
A brief moment of 
relief 
From the difficulties 
of life

Andrea Dietrich May 28, 2010 at 11:16 PM Very nice one about fleeting relationships with a gentleness about it! Too bad if it has to be that way, don't you think? Relationships take a LOT of work. thanks for your comment today. Have a great Memorial Weekend. Luv, Andrea

Carolyn Devonshire September 16, 2009 at 4:32 PM So true, Matthew, that "Love is a gust of wind passing quickly." We need to savor every moment of it and when the fire starts to dim, fan the flames to make love soar again. Lovely poem. Love is one of the few things that can provide a bit of relief from life's struggles. Awesome write! Love, Carolyn
