Love’s Many Faces

Our love has endured its share of sorrows,
the foolish mistakes...the ache of regret.
We aimed our dreams toward each bright tomorrow,
vowing forever, to never forget.

With each anguished tear we have shed for love,
we have grown and changed in such diverse ways.
Time doles truths we have long been afraid of,
while love succumbs to the old, worn cliches.

The years have well proved what we always knew;
I live in your heart, as you live in mine.
Wherever you go, whatever you do,
this love will not fade with the trials of time.

The past will not steal our dreams as before...
We forgive, we let go...we love all the more!

Thanks POET, so good to hear from you. I've been away for too long. You've been keeping yourself busy writing some powerful pieces yourself. I commented on one recently and it really did knock me out. It was amazing! Blessings my friend, Celtic

HI Miss P, how are you this fine day? Thank you for messaging and I know what you mean about feeling this poem. Every time I read it, there are several reactions in my body and soul. Can't seem to meet anyone locally and I won't settle for what I hope for in a man. No one is perfect and I want someone who is real, cares, is willing to try and shows me through his actions that win/win matters to him. Sorry, went off on a day dream there. Message me per email and I will always respond.

Celtic Lady
