It Is What It Is

Some might say
it was the rain
that brought all the pain,
the lonely years apart
the breaking of a heart
still I was willing to take that chance
to hold her in my arms
evenings full of romance
the partaking of her charms,
so now I musn't complain nor cry
it is what it is,
if love can live
love can surely die...

if love can live
love can surely die...

I hear the pain, but love only dies if
you kill it.  I don't think you can
kill what once has truly lived in your heart,
and it cannot kill you, but that pain, which
you express in your write can be all too real.
Enjoyed the read.

Love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul,and with all your mind. Love your neighbor as yourself.
Maranatha!

hmmmm painfully worded......but I don't think it dies, once love has lived, it might fade, it even might turn another color, but...a piece of it lives on...just proven by what you have written.......sigh

Thank you Katahdin, Jerry, suthern, JL and luminosity...This is more about one sided love...if you love someone and they don't return it in kind you need to let it go and move on...or to let it die so to speak...James
