Winds Of Change

For years, I was cautious About who I gave my heart. I'd always known love hurts, So I tried to play it smart. Then you walked into my life And stole my heart from me. There wasn't any struggle, It just happened so naturally. In all my years of life, This hadn't happened before. My heart, you stole away, Was finally able to soar. My love that grew for you Was so pure and strong. Life with you was natural, Together we had to belong. Then one day, like the wind, For no reason, you just change. You weren't the person I loved, You were someone strange. I gave you all I had, For you it wasn't enough. That, or all your love Was nothing but a bluff. Regardless, it was my heart That had to pay the price. It was laid out on an altar And used as a sacrifice.

I love that your rhyming poetry seems to always have a twist or profound conclusion. Sadly this happens to many of us in love. Relatable and emotional! Xo
