True Devotion As I sit here, the house is all quiet I find myself thinking of you, again Remembering, when you and I Were still together and at one time As happy as a man and wife Could ever have been The pain has faded quite a bit Still, sometimes it returns again Causing this heart to ache As it did when I left you that day I remember the words you once said That had touched my heart so deeply I still wonder what I might have done To make you stop loving me It wasn’t as easy to turn my love off The way it seemed to have been for you It has taken me all of this time To get over loving you like I did My heart was closed the day I left I have no desires left in me To ever love someone again The way I had always loved you You had become my whole life Then, you damaged this heart so bad There is a fear deep inside of me Of feeling the such devotion I once so freely gave to you A devotion that was always true When you stopped loving me There is one thing you forgot to do You failed to give me back my heart 10-18-05 |

aaww Chickie, Sorry this happened to you, but who knows what will happen to you, life can go in circles but in the end, things will work out, i just know it, I felt this with my first love stephen and he turned out to be someone that hurt me deeply, and it took me a while, but just take timeout and then go from there, thats my advice to you, thanks for sharing, good write. Poetry can get you very far |

Oh, Sue, this was one of the most eloquent spills from your heart and soul that I have had the pleasure of reading. Far too many of us have been where you are! ~ and as you are learning, it does get better! ~ but those memories can still pop up and blind-side us when we least expect it. A very moving piece of writing ~ and piece of your heart. Hugs with love, Linda |

Thank you all for reading, and for your very kind replies. My heart still aches at times. Not as much as it use to. But, every now and then, everything seems to surface, again. |
