Lessons Learned

Summary: Lessons learned in love. Is the pain worth the pleasure? What would you do differently next time?

 

What have I learned from a dream deferred?

That heartache sucks

That life lessons hurt

 

Don't want to fall in love ever again!

No intertwined encounters

No bridges to be burned

 

How could something so real be of fiction?

Flooding my thoughts

Feening for my addiction

 

I don't ever want to feel that euphoric again!

Joined like the siamese

Living in sin

 

How can I recover from a love gone wrong?

Not from a poem

And not from a song

 

Music soothes the savage beast they say.

A moment in time

The lyrics of pain.

 

What was the lesson learned for this opening act?

Protect your heart

Be ready to attack

 

Don't ever let them see you sweat I guess.

Times gone past

Silhouettes of finesse

 

And lastly don't fall for the con-lines of fate.

That you're the best above all

And the essence of their mate

 

Don't believe the hype, hooplah or hooray

Tomorrow is another day

And a lesson learned...

 

selah

Epiphany by Gary Stephens

“We’re going to use nine megaton warheads in space and we’re not sure they’re large enough to be effective. Why would you even consider using kiloton-range surface-to-air warheads as back-up?” The answer was succinct. “Because they’re all we have.”
