Love And Lost
by Mary -BrytEyz- Ball (Age: 38)

Age Rating: 1 to 127

 
Happy are the ones who've loved,
the ones who've lost,
& the ones who've cried

Happy are the ones who've cared,
better than the ones
who never even tried

Love is a beautiful thing,
rich & precious;
love's what I've found in you

Love is not often fragile,
hiding its' strength,
Love makes all things new

You're the one who taught me,
who made me care,
and who showed me the light

You're the one who has the magic
to change what's wrong
& make it all seem right

I learned to live a happy life,
smile when I'm sad,
and never stop trying to win

I learned that when love's over
& all seems lost,
that's really when it begins

Thank you for the memories dear,
the dreams you gave,
and my happy laughter too

Thanks for the space in my heart
that was your home,
now it holds the memories of you

I can completely understand your reasons for not enjoying the topic of the poem (or any love poem for that matter). As a hopeless (or rather hopeful) romantic... I find I can not give up on it. THere MUST be something out there for me... somewhere. Although the poem states all the beauty and wonder of a loving relationship, the last lines reveal that he is no longer with me and I am left with emptiness and memories. So, there IS a dark side to the poem... if that makes you feel any better. LOL. At the time this was written, I finally realized that my own marriage was a bust and I was empty and bitter for the dreams of "used to be" and "should have been". Although I later tried to make it work anyway... it was only a prolonged realization of the inevitable... it was over. Funny how looking back at these old works I see the beginnings of my current reality, though I didn't, couldn't, or wouldn't see them. (Sigh)

*scratches head* You caught me in an exceptionally sour mood when it comes to love. Although my parents haven't had any large arguments in the last two days, for an extremely pleasant change, I'm still very...un-hopeful about love and romance of all kinds. Although I don't let their impending divorce bring me down, reading love poems make me scowl. My parents have been slowly drifting apart for three years, but the last year has been *censored due to your age rating on this poem*. Anyway, just need come capitals in the beginning of all the lines. The flow was a little bumpy, but other than that this was good poem. I'll award praise for the quality of the piece, not my distaste for the topic.

What a beautiful way to remember a lost love. It's too easy to be bitter when love ends. It's harder to hold on to the reasons that you loved the person. I like the rhyming scheme you used in this one. Good job!

The truth written very nicely. Thanks, Anthony

Hi, that was a very touching poem. I have felt that way many times.
