On A Journey To The Unknown

Today, this is even more true, than even back when I wrote this.

I Never Thought
~ By Sue ~

There was a time you complained to me
How hard it was for you to keep a wife
You failed to tell me all of the things you did
Which always caused them to leave your life

After being with you for a little while
It was easy for me to see why you couldn't
There are so many things you choose to do
Alot of these things you do, you shouldn't

My heart is breaking deep inside me
To know I don't feel the same about you
As I did when you and I first met
Sometimes I feel so much guilt inside, too

The love I felt for you inside, was so strong
I never thought, it would turn out wrong

Sue, you saw the truth
in the beginnings
but wanted still,
to enrich his life
so you stuck through,
thick and thin,
and gave it your all
to be a good wife.

Sue, that first stanza speaks volumes! Remember those words when your resolve weakens.

Keep the faith, dear one! Keep the faith!--and this too shall pass! Believe me, it will--even though it may not seem as though it will at this moment.

~ Sending you love and light

I can relate to this poem especially the ending. "The love I felt for you inside, was so strong
I never thought, it would turn out wrong" Thank you.
