All For You... No more

You were the one who gave me joy

And brought a smile to touch my lips,

And yet it was you,

With cruel intent, who banishes me

To this den of iniquity.

I yearned for you, my heart did long,

Your fire fuelled my very soul,

And yet no more,

Will I submit, and allow your 

Growing torment.

For I may not be brave, and stand tall,

Nor demand my true desires,

But no longer shall I,

Pity, and remorse, and weep,

For what I lost in love 

I found a stronger heart that beats.

Author's Note

struggling whether or not the 'den of iniquity' works there?

[Coyote Poetry]

Love teaches us many things. I believe the disappointment of love lost make the value of the true love we shall know. More valuable.
"But no longer shall I,
Pity, and remorse, and weep,
For what I lost in love
I found a stronger heart that beats."
I agree with the above lines. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.

To overcome the sorrow of love I believe is one of the hardest things but to learn to carry on is a wonderful thing.
