There's strength in failure. There's hope in accepting what is. It gives us courage to move on. But more importantly there's peace in forgiving. We all love and then get hurt. It's reality. There's old and ten newness come again.

I've had my share. In the end it's up to us to feel either to forgive and or hope to be forgiven.

Good write about pain and disappointment. Slaughtered love is a bit harsh. I'm glad you're past it.

Good luck.

Yes but free from love is like you don't want to love or be loved because of the hard work we put in and then gets hurt and losing control of it?

I hope what you're saying is temporary break from being loved. I'm not saying you're wrong but we can always love ourselves without getting involved with someone who can either make us happy or hurt at the same time.

Anyways your poem is a typical expression of pain and remorse even if not a complete condescension from being betrayed. Be strong and don't be afraid to love again.

Good luck.

I am not giving up on love. But there is so much hard work and more pain than happiness sometimes and it is not an easy journey. Take care.

Sad, honest poem here., thank you for sharing it
You seem to have gained strength and some closure and I

You go girl!! Enjoy the rest of your life and "Good riddance to bad rubbish"! Don't worry - be Happy!
