Try to forget this other

by June   Jun 30, 2007


I should have kept my vow ,
to never fall in love again.
The return of love in my life ,
is now causing me so much pain.
Security and stability I have with my partner ,
that was till I met this other man.
This other man captured my heart ,
loving him in secret is all I can.
He did tell me he loved me ,
said that he had told is wife everything.
Told me he had to see me to talk ,
but he never showed and tears this did bring.
Now I am left reminded of loves pain again ,
the same pain I felt many years ago.
My heart is aching so much ,
but my feelings I can not show.
I was ready to tell my partner ,
that with him I am not happy anymore.
Thats how much I love this other ,
and wanted to be with him for sure.
Now all there is for me to do ,
is go back to pretending life is fine.
Try to forget this other man I love ,
and to mend this broken heart of mine.

    Such a emotional write. I can relate and know only too well how hard it is to put on brave fact and tell those close to you 'I'm okay, really I am!'

    At least we are fortunate enough to have our wonderful release - poetry!! It is cleansing for the soul!!

    Beautiful. I've been conflicted with the same situation. Confused and stuck between two choices.

    What a beautiful sad poems you penned here my friend, this touch my heart, Sorry if you feel this way, you will always in my prayer....... "Every person in this life has something to teach me...and as soon as I accept that, I open myself to truly listening. For everyone that makes you cry, there are three to make you smile, And a smile will last a long, long time, but a tear for just a little while. Behind the clouds is a Golden sun, and a sky that's full of Blue. Reach high, for stars lie hidden in your soul. Dream deep, for every dream precedes the goal."
    my best wishes for you dear friend, take care, Bert.
