We must shed
a few warm tears
to experience
love
we didn't learn
how to love
and loved too
quickly
we became each
other's assistant
of growth
we should no longer
seal our hearts
or hide behind
our grief
we were hurt
and we weren't
meant to be
but it was all
worth it. So,
take a step
forward
be free-
happy.
just
love
.

-Trina.

I like this, Trina~ and the way you`ve tapered the words down to the ending, slowing the reader and condensing the message. Wonderful  

My best~

Yep, sometimes when so young. But the rush is unbelievable isn't it? Nothing like it on the face of the earth, then, that old reality sets in......I like how you conclude this with wisdom.

Absolutely love these lines...

Ab-so-lutely, Trina. Life's experiences until the day we breathe our last, always searching and understanding. Excellent!

Nailed it again girlie!  I love reading you! I always go into one of your poems thinking "what is she going to show me this time".  I always come away with a pearl. ebm

Fine writing on a tender subject, Trina. Learning is a process and so is life.
