By love I've been betrayed. The pain is deep and fast. If the sea should betray the beach it kisses thus, would the sand disolve at once, And barren ground emerge? If the stars betrayed the moon, would day be all we see? If winter betrayed the spring, would chill winds ever blow? So as the beach, the moon, and spring .... I shall prevail.... I shall go on! |

Oh, Ellie! How can such beauty come out of such pain? You will go on, and you will be stronger still. hugs To love another person is to see the face of God. - Les Miserables Marilyn |

Dear Ellie, Too often in the experience of personal dissapointments and woes- feelings take overand pain rules & prevails, reasoning and thought get subdued by the dark & dread. But you look to be demonstrating a beautiful rationale and attitude in dealing with such. It is not a denial of reality, but of the triumph of faith & hope and determination over the wreckages of time. Keep that attitude! You are a survivor--- You will be a Winner!!! God Bless you & Keep you strong, David No Better Place do I know Than where Hearts knit as one, For in that grand experience, The Better ALL become. God Bless us All!!! |

the worst of all transgressions is the betrayal by a loved one..someone we trusted..it is no accident that the bible makes a point of this in the new testament when Judas betrays Christ. this piece addresses the pain of such a betrayal very nicely..well done, gentle lady. the woods are lovely, dark, and deep, but I have promises to keep, and many miles to go before I sleep...Frost |

A wonderfully uplifting and philosophical poem! I love the thought about the stars betraying the moon. Wonderfully put. Thanks so much for the read! "Forget regret, or life is yours to miss. No other course, no other way... No day but today" ~Broadway Musical RENT~ *Cassandra Roseen* |
