I love her still
Folder:
My trashcan poetry Our love
a product from times passed and for many years
it lasted
yet in retrospect
the years seemed to have gone by rather fast
leaving behind quite a collection of memories amassed
both good an bad
I was left behind
left feeling cold , distant and so alone
she said our love had run its course
this fact sinks in with a whisper
friends ask if you had known
then what you know now
would you do it again
an with a heavy sigh I have to say
Yes ..................................
for the simple fact is
I love her still

I hold fast to a few things (similar to 'pet peeves')..and always will. Some would analyze that as a refusal to grow...so be it. It is who I am and that is fine with me.

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
