When Love Has Faded

When Love Has Faded
                    
                               When love has faded and seem unclear,
                               I'll but know by then that life is dear.
                               With harsh tones from a lovers voice,
                               One will see that love has no choice.
                               Because from bitter feelings of past shame,
                               From one to another we all take blame.

                               Blames of devotional need and trust,
                               Caring desires of ones emotional lust.
                               Still the support of warmth brings shade,
                               For feelings become rejected than fade.
                               Fading from pities  shameful needs,
                               Wanting when your heart hurts and bleeds.

                               Now these moments of rejections pain,
                               Will leave me alone without gain.
                               For when life has a lesson to teach,
                               One will come to feel a strong breach.
                               So when love shakes your hand and says good bye,
                               Its only a feeling and some wonder why.
