Cruel mistress

by tyler   Oct 16, 2012


Love is a cruel mistress
she cares only for fun
when things go wrong
she simply runs

love is a terrible emotion
it eats you alive in one single motion
it makes you a shell
it makes you feel worthless

but despite the pain
the sorrow, the deep scarring
love is still worthy

becuase for one brief moment
in arms that were caring
the world didnt seem scary

    Love the turnaround at the end, many many poems try to explain love....a difficult and thought provoking subject. great attempt by the way.

      It helps if theres a back story, well mine is this, im 17 the girl i loved and still love is 17, we planned on getting married but her family forbid her to see me. it put a lot of stress on us both and she ended up breaking it off. Then on top of that she started dating my so called friend, but through everything ive went through i still love her but its just one of those things.
