Loves Combat

Love the structure of this with its couplets ... sprinkled with questions ... internal/external monologue ... recounting the joy turned to pain ... raw write that emotes/evokes ...

Thank you 🤗

Nicely written, tear jerker.

Don’t cry for me Argentina lol

Oh first of all, I want to say I feel your pain. I knew someone like that who was home to me and it almost destroyed me when I realized that never would she return my love for her. Love is wonderful in all ways but there always seems to be a price to pay, a sacrifice for knowing it. I have shared a few love poems here and I am reminded of them reading your work. It touched me, truly it did. Love is beauty and love is pain. One thing i learned when I wrote a poem called "In the Quiet of Your Touch" was that I am the source of all that I feel. If i love someone one then I am that source of that love, that love lives in me and I have found someone that I can be with and express the love to them that lives in me for that person.  If they go away, which they often do I know that as the source of my own love, that love in me remains in quiet times and when I choose I can love them again, even when they are absent. What I have also learned though is that the hardest soul crushing thing is when I pour my heart out to someone, I mean give them my all and they take and take without ever  returning that love back to me and the worst is that the have no knowing of. just how much I have loved them and it hurts like hell and that is pain that is hard to get over, it is absolutely soul crushing, it is like dying and every thing we shared with that loved one reminds us of their absence and we just can't seem to escape the agony of their loss. It is so hard to heal from losing a love like this and it can take years to overcome the bitter tears of regret. All of the if only's. If only I had done this or done that, maybe he, she would still be with me. I am still mourning in part over my first girlfriend from 25 years ago. The way she broke up with me just shattered me into a million pieces. I had a nervous breakdown from it that lasted 18 months. So my heart is with you Whiskey Eyes. One more thing I now say to myself when I lose someone is this, "I will love again, love is mine." Love belongs to me, I am love and I will not be moved from who or what I am no matter what happens. Lovers come an lovers go, but we must always do is remain true unto ourselves in knowing that we gave our best in loving the one who could not return the love we so freely gave.  Maybe these words will encourage you. I hope the very best for you, truly I do.  I have written a love poem Called "Agony and Bliss" I think you would like it. Take care love.  David
