Life itself is bigger than any love affair The magic of being in love may disappear One partner may become tired of what both share Leaving the other in a sad state of despair
If you are one with love that is still enduring Please be thankful each day for what you are sharing If the love you once shared has come to an ending Though it may not be easy please stop your crying
The price you are now paying with your suffering Is not worth someone who is no longer caring So just wipe away all those tears and start smiling Lift your head up and see the sun is still shining
Listen to the birds and you will hear them singing Look at a sunset and enjoy what you're seeing Feel the glorious warmth of the sunshine on your skin Enjoy fully the wondrous beauty of living
Even though life may not be peaceful as a dove Here is something you should always mindful of Love of life is more precious than all other love Grasp this sacred treasure with blessings from above

About this poem:
OK, so you and your bf/gf or spouse have broken up, or he/she has died. Though it may not be easy, now it is time to get a hold of yourself and move on with your life.
This poem is dedicated to such persons. Remember: "Love of life is more precious than all other love"
Nice thoughts Socrates .........Its good to grieve mate but the sooner you pick yourself up the better.......and what better way than to open your eyes to whats around............Regards Nu
Hi, socrates44, While, as the poet writes, Life itself is bigger than any love affair, it's not always easy to let go of one's despair when love is no longer there. Listen to the birds and you will hear them singing Look at a sunset and enjoy what you're seeing Feel the glorious warmth of the sunshine on your skin Enjoy fully the wondrous beauty of living is good poetic advice to begin the healing. Thanks for sharing

Travis Thanks for your comment. I'm glad you agree. Your poem "I'm Falling", in which you expressed your love affair with life, inspired me to write this piece. There is so much beauty all around us if we take the time to observe and enjoy it. This is a part of the Love of Life.

A really, really good piece of advice, dear poet, I too am of the opinion that no matter what we should move on with our lives. Life is too short to waste it on anything other than enjoying it fully! Loved your poem, well done and many thanks for sharing!
