What does it take
To not separate?
What does it take to hold on tight
To the one your eyes laid sight
From that first date you thought might
turn into a love like no other
They would forever be your lover
What happened to it?
Why did you quit?
Hopefulness turned into distress.
Once alive marital bliss
Now slammed with divorces death wish!
Why?
What did you stop?
What did you change?
The ingredients were there
Now they are missing or rearranged.
If you want this to work
You must return to the things you did
When your love yearned,.
Before the tables turned.
The weeds you have allowed to grow
Must be uprooted now
Or they will choke the life hanging on
Blowing out the flickering flame
That is trying to burn.
You must return to love.
To have love
You must give love
To love is a choice
Not waiting for external stimuli
It must come from within,
Sacrificially.
Do you remember love?
Try love again
It never fails
Return to love.
Great poem..Sometimes holding
Great poem..Sometimes holding on can be a struggle..But one lesson we have all learned is,
it takes two wanting a relationship to remain..One can not do it alone.
so true
so true
