love can fail
Do you believe love is blind?
I've heard:
"love bears all things,
love believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things,
Love never fails."
Love never fails?
Well, I discovered that love
can leave you with hanging entrails
loosely exposed, painful anguish
with you last few exhales
A damaged heart?
Or was it just the blatantly start?
There is never a war
unless one claims it that far
in fact blame me and find me with a drink in a bar
"it is what it is," don't you see
A disappointed you always said to me
I thought there could be belief.
I understand questioning,
but you stole something like a thief
claimed it, hidden, and skillfully skinning
You hear the cry
always the same question, "Why?"
unexplained, fallen, doomed
teary eyes, dead already in the tomb
I don't ask for forgiveness
Not my right to ask
The actions so treasonous;
you continue hidden within your innocent mask
I wont plea mercy
we didn't make it to an anniversary
So Who hides more?
Who has more to lose?
I let it go like an annoying chore
hang with friends, end the night as I choose
I've been nice
but recently you love to push
you haven't been wise,
a sudden ambush
I tell you again "hush"
I care
But, it's been my despair
I wont be controlled,
Told what to do
on house arrest, withhold
I'm no lush,quit lying
This was not love, it was only a crush
"love bears all things,
love believes all things,
hopes all things,
endures all things,
Love never fails."
But love does fail
When hidden secrets unveil.

I like this, I want to say you are looking at both sides of the coin or tipping over the rock. That is a good thing....
@vexations - I'm a hopeless romantic none the less but I sometimes wish what I wrote was wrong but we can never hide the negative because then we would just be naive. Gentlemen can be nice sweet and ave chivalrousness at times, well the ones who have dared taken me out, but after all we've humans and even a little jealousy can suddenly change a person.
I do believe love is blind...
When I fall for someone, I become blinded to their imperfections. Or, rather, their imperfections become absolutely beautiful to me. In loving each imperfection, they become flawless.
@AncoraImparo - I wholehearted agree with you actually... where I'm actually getting at here is that if a person and their flaws don't become one...like you said "Flawless" in (other) person's eyes... then this is not love and that is truly where it fails.... distinguishing the difference.
When i love a person... I can dislike you but I still love that you are who you are. I don't judge, but I may disagree. I accept a person as them (flaws and all) as a love interest. I don't think someone has been capable to do the same with me, though. Then again loving someone and 2 people being in love (people crushing on each other) all depend on the circumstances those 2 people.
great work
@godfatherofgreenbay - thank you!
I agree about love failing. I might feel this way because I haven't found the right guy yet. I have wondered recently if there is a right person for everyone.
I wish my poetry writing was half as good as this.
@lexacolton - In my sincere opinion I believe we're compatible to more than one person... in fact many.The problem is that people aren't willing to put the effort to work it out.A marriage now sometimes last less than the courting process (bf/gf). I sure I've had my opportunity to meet many great potentials but if both don't agree then nothing happens. I think I have learned to love... the problem comes when people can't love me as unconditional as I can. People think I'm right for them here and there but they don't want to take the time and give it a try... I don't know why... but that is also why I wrote my last post. http://pinktiger335.xanga.com/751652583/being-a-single-mom-and-dating/
@crim077 - Your writing is phenomenal... I'm no writer! I wrote this because I was sad and angry at the time. I am driven by the emotions that my heart throws at me.
@pinktiger335 - My writing is mediocre at best. lol This was superb though.
@crim077 - Thank you! It means a lot. But, don't put down your writing. I just write for fun and an outlet. In my english classes in college... I was always torn to pieces by english majors and the professors. I've taken this as a hobby after college.I figure it would help with reading and trying to force my self with a lil vocab.
@Landry Barb II@facebook - I agree... marriage would last less. The chase is always the fun part and I actually do it a lot (not being chased as much...guys like to be chased now more than ever, it's weird) ... Or maybe it's my fault for being interested... I don't know. I don't know what tradition dating is... or if I've done it.*shrug* Love is hard to define. Very hard... Maybe i'll try and figure out something to write about relationship and fail marriage in a poem. I don't know if I can do it. but, I will start thinking about it.:) Thanks for stopping by.
