Another broken heart
My heart was broke a few years back
It healed and there was no looking back
It took a while, but worth the wait
I swore that hurt would not come near
For the pain was beyond what I could endure
But I rose again, started anew, was me all over and better than before
Then you came from my past, an old love found seeking me now
We became friends and grew from there, 30 plus years, who cares
You sought me out and reeled me in, I feel for you, more than before
My first love of years ago, second chances in the air
You told me things, things I believed, made promises I longed to hear
I gave you chances to come through, traveled far to be with you
Sold my things and home too, left those I loved to be with you
I get here and chances come, one by one they disappear
We promised love and marriage too, but you did not come through
Once again my heart is broke, how he lied and NEVER came through!

About this poem:
A few years ago i was in an unhealthy relationship, but got out and started fresh and began my life again. Then my first love of over 30 years ago found me. We started a friendship that turned into a relationship with great promise. But in the end, he did not come through, just as he did all those years ago. So here I am away from my home, but determined to make my life work without him.
