Look long for he is short
to stay
he'll take your heart and
fly away,
upon the wind on which
he flies
your love will lay until
it dies,
and with each aching
beat of heart
your soul will seek a
brand new start,
and memory will choose
to wane
a small reminder of
the pain,
will linger in the
back of mind
a remnant of what's
left behind,
and one day when your heart
is new
and you recall all you've
been through,
you'll see his love way
back then
for all it was or might
have been,
and finally know the
meaning of
living,trusting,joy
and love,
tho his love wasn't meant
to last
the greatest test in life
you've passed,
for you have loved with
no expectations
and you have lost with
no recriminations,
so even now as your
teardrops rain,
think not of loss think not
of pain,
for your heart has been open
and true
and this bodes and speaks so well
of you,
your time for love may not
be now
but it will find you some way
somehow,
and when that love you're
hoping for
smiles and walks through your
lifes door,
you will look back to
your past
and finally know this love
will last,
so look long for he is short
to stay
he will teach you to love
another day...
that is beautiful. so bittersweet. i love the ending, and how throughout you can remain positive. broken hearts don't heal easy, but this poem is a nice help along the way.
