Poem Artwork

My life bleeds into the mornings dawn
but it goes unseen by your eyes for
you are long gone~ unlike how it was last
night when  I was misty in moonglow
pulsating in your arms~as you whispered
of my charms


How often I sing this  mournful refrain like
a lonesome dove crying in the rain~are
birds like us~do they too despair~ when their love disappears~never knowing if
they will return~so we are left to yearn


Where did it  come from~this habit of
love having to cost the payment of one
partner lost~shouldn't love be an equal
share~so one isn't left feeling bereft of care


Causing such anguish who can explain
why love has  only one to  remain
while the other won't try to make it last
for they see themselves as   star  cast
who decides which one  comes first
and which has  their bubble burst!

I just read that Americans are getting more lonely. Maybe that's our problem, Eileen. We're female Americans. Nawwww, I think we're just summoned to fits of realism sometimes. LOL.

why love has only one to remain
while the other won't try to make it last
for they see themselves as star cast

In those lines lie much truth. Usually I think one partner decides that they are worth more than the other partner, "Oh, I deserve better," becomes the internal refrain. And so they go in search of better. In reality, unless your partner is afflicted with asocial personality disorder or narcissism, you get what you give.
Enjoyed this poem, lady. ~~Nordette

It would seem that there is one who proceeds innocently with eager anticipation of making the garden a beautiful blessing for the two to share, while the other, with equal eagerness in the beginning, is torn away by those forces that hate who LOVE really is and the fruits of such.

Before I met Michele, my wife, I rarely found anyone that had the tenacity to wield the sword as a team and fight to the end together.


The relationship between two people is as mysterious as the relationship between Christ and His creation.

There will always be that force trying to destroy real love, because in the river of real love, I personally believe, lies all answers of all the unanswered questions that have mystified mankind from the beginning.

I hear your heart-cry here Eileen.

Someone once said, "You can't buy love insurance; a guarantee that a person will love you forever ... or that you, yourself, will always love the other with the same intensity." Therefore, love and enjoy it, yet when love departs, you must let go, and adjust, or else become bitter, or emotionally handicapped. If you truly love someone, you'll want that person to be happy. Good poem, Eileen!

Love and pain. Ever wonder why these two emotions must share the table in life? Love and hate. Every wonder how easily it is to go from one to the other? Love everafter. Ever wonder why that is not a common-place occurance?

Fantastic love poem. One of them, the one who was hurt most must come first, burst the first bubble. GBQ

Loves unanswered question for Christ was the love who stood alone for all and paid the ultimate price for our freedom with His life.

Great question Eileen... do birds despair when the life partner is gone (through injury etc). What simple wisdom do they possess that keeps them flying high?
Oh to the harmony of sacred unions; to smooth the way each for the other...
Love to you Courageous heart!!

"who decides which one comes first

Indeed. Maybe a change of tack Queen, perhaps you need to do the bubble bursting, just a thought.
Endearing write, know this well.
