The GATE

The GATE
or Moments Reflect


When something’s worth keeping, don’t let it go
fight to retain the love that you’ve known for
when the love that you have seems faded and worn
search for its meaning where love is reborn.

For in a moment of anger, when something’s not right
surely can lead you away from the love of your life
when all pathways seem leading apart from the start
remember the gateway where you lost your heart

When turning away all that was good, seemed right
at the time, ponder this loss and the pain in your heart
if words don’t come easy, try the truth from the start
take it from me, for I lost my heart alone in such strife

I beckon you caution, firstly, please hear my words
If the love that you carry, was your reason to marry
or was it your reason to leave it, back left at the gate
swapping your loves romance for hurting and hate

I doubt that you’ve, entirely forgotten the truth
when feelings often raised, more than the roof
now, those memories linger and wont go away
simply by wishing them not to stay.
