Poem I wrote in 5/17/01
For some love is a wonderful thing like a rainbow full of colors and beautiful dreams. For other's it can be painful, hurtful a nightmare, they can't wake up from or even runaway from. Some wake up with hopes of a better future, and continued faith in love and well who knows what the future holds. Our lives are filled with new beginnings and stories yet untold and then they begin to unfold. Some are lessons and trails sent from a higher power, to see how you build or tear down your tower. Some stories have happy ending's some just end, but they Alway's seem to teach us something about us within. I once knew this couple who had a love so great, well at least that was the expression on their face, hardly disagreeing, never a fight. Everything in their lives seemed so great. They had a child they loved so much but for some reason they had fallen apart. Nobody could believe the betrayal and lies one had caused the other without a suspicion in sight. Yea she was the type to flirt but everyone just took it as a simple joke. She was flirty and shy all at the same time, nobody expected the betrayal she had to hide. Nobody thought she would ever say goodbye and leave that great love behind. As he went looking for her and saw all her belongings gone, not even a letter to explain what was going on. Goodbye would've been helpful but how could she tell him she was leaving him for her brother- N- law that was more than hurtful it's more than shameful. Even though she did it anyway, without a care of how much the family would hate her. She loved him and ran away with him and to her sister it wasn't fair, but I guess she didn't care. She didn't care because she had hopes of a better life and a greater love. Nobody Know's why people do what they do for love. Or why they hurt the one's they once loved. Love fades I guess, but one thing that doesn't is shame. To have to carry that in life is hard and the consequences are sometimes large. She did suffer a lot after that, and eventually died young leaving her kids with her new lover. Be careful in your love choices and your new stories that you begin to unfold not all have a fairytale ending's some are best left untold.
