WHEN LOVE DISAPPEARS

Have you ever loved someone so much that you hated them?
Have you ever hated someone so much that you loved them?
and you realize that love and hate are not polar opposites,
but a small part of a huge puzzle that no one's ever
completely finished.                  
To truly experience love means never having to deal with fear.
No fear of unfaithfulness.                
No fear of betrayal.                  
No fear that one day the love you feel will fade.
No fear at all.                            

There's a feeling that feels like you're falling down a hole.
A feeling that can be exhausting to the soul.
A feeling that can make you burst out into tears.
When love disappears.

There's a time and a place when your world can rip in two.
A time when solace can't be found no matter what you do.
A time when you realize all your darkest fears.  
When love disappears.                        

Sometimes at your weakest moment,
something wonderful can happen.        
And sometimes at your most joyful moment,      
devastation can hit.        
But keep it together, don't let your fears win you over.
Stay true to yourself and never quit.

You never really have to go and close down your heart.
Sometimes an ending can really mean a new start.
Sometimes it's all right to let your life switch gears.   When love disappears.

A very warm welcome to Passions.


  Great job on your first post.

Don't care what people say
Just follow your own way
Don't give up and use the chance
To return to innocence.

Allow me to welcome you to Passions also. And there is wisdom in your poem. Life will always take new directions, we just have to be bold enough choose those new paths when they appear.

And I lie here in bed all alone- I can't mend
And I fear tomorrow will be okay

Have you ever loved someone so much that you hated them?

Yes, I have. Scary feeling. Well written poem for such dark thoughts. Welcome

Enjoyed your feelings about love...it doesn't hurt as much if we keep in mind that we don't own love...it comes and goes as it pleases...James

Powerful poem, JT.  Many can relate to the feelings described here I'm sure.  I know I sure can.  Failed love is like someone ripping the rug out from under you.  You didn't expect it and have no clue as to which way to go.
