He looked at another With love in his eyes He held someone near He told her his lies When the lovers stopped loving When they started to hate When the bough finally broke It was already too late He beamed at another He glared down at me He gave her a promise Said we never would be When the blood had stopped dripping And the scabs pealed to scars When the bough finally broke She grieved from afar He swore to another Everything he could give He gave her his future For as long as they lived When the pain had stopped dripping And the words had simply ceased When the bough finally broke Her soul was not released When he claimed her heart And stared in her eyes When he held her close He embedded his lies When the love had finished And the sweet became tart When the bough finally broke It shattered her heart. Always look forward, never look back, dreams are much more refreshing than regrets. |

No problem....we will take on the task of giving comments... I enjoyed the poem, the feel of it was evident, powerfully evident throughout. And I hope it wasn't you.... and that the bough landed on HIS head!!! |

(big hugggssssssss) Oh Angie, this is so very heartaching, sweet friend, I sure hope the bough has crashed upon him by now and hurt more than the magnitude of all the victims who feel prey to his lying eyes! (sad sigh) I send angel healing hugs your way, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Angie, thank you for sharing! May love and light always shine upon you! Love, Noah Eaton I don't need no proof when it comes to God and truth |

The bough did fall on me, unfortunately. I learned my first lesson in love and it was to fear it...Now I am moving on, or thought I was, until I saw him today, I didn't have that normal "heart flutter"...I was with my new boyfriend, but i had such a strange range of emotions I didn't even talk. Always look forward, never look back, dreams are much more refreshing than regrets. |
