Can Love Be Saved? by Terrie*

what does it feel like
to be stung
by love
that starts going wrong?
how will you know
if it was only your love that you felt grow
what if you were
so cluless
to many things
that they dismiss
would you still trust
a relationship
if they went out and sought lust
because you were not there
in another's arms they shared
a one night
to make themselves feel alright?
what if every line you believed?
until they said
they just needed to be relieved?
from the start
how would you know if you had a hold of their heart?
a love that was so new
a love too good to be true
what if the truth revealed someday
that their words lead you astray
and it was your heart they cheated
and it was their full love you needed

how many more will fall for this trap
and believe their crap
how many lines of broken promises
will you be feed?
how many more ?
how about when your life
your love
your heart become torn apart
will you still
love them with
the depth of your heart?
can they be forgiven?
are they worth believin'?
will they even be worth your time?

Only if hope is present, I guess. But even then, it could be empty hope. Nevertheless, I have found that forgiving is a release of your own pain for that hurt. But it doesn't always mean that all of it goes away. It may still linger at the back of you heart. Lovely poem!

Now, who am I to give advice? With the help of God and the level of your faith, I'm sure love can be saved. Love does hurt, but that's what's so unique about it. You learn from love. Without it's ups and downs, we wouldn't know what love was all about. Well, that's just in my opinion. Love Queen, persevere with those poems girl! Don't let your ink run out!

Ladies, your both correct,
Angel & Meri, hope and faith are two of the main factors here, love isn't all about fantasies and roses,and romance love will sting ,there will be bumpy roads, there will be temptations there will be tears,and heart breaks. but all cain be mended with a carin' heart and soul,depends on how much you are willin' to put into it.we all learn a bit more about one another and ourselves through major challenges, thats where we gain our strengths.we take on the good and the bad, because there will be challengin' changes.we must make the effort to get back in..we nurture and grow with the help of love..there is always a solution, helps to have a friend with a solid shoulder and a terry towel..ya just gots to work together to make it work..now if it becomes habitual..then ya got a HUGE Godfather problem. thanx for your insightful comment.
