Love Vs A Lie

If you can not have a man one way,

A guarantee is always another one,

Lie is a strong word to use for love,

Resting is almost impossible to achieve,

Countless hours logged with bleeding fingers,

Dreams,

Longings that will never be filled,

Passions placed inside me that will forever never come to fruit,

Without knowledge of another path,

I chose love not a lie,

One can drown in pain when you feel no hope is there,

Smother in the smoke from a lack of release of seeing their face,

Hearing their voice,

Laughing with them one way or another,

I wanted a guarantee,

I will never look at God and say I was a liar,

I can rest knowing that he is aware I was a woman in love.

loveing and lying are both powerful things. No one can guarantee that they will love you today and tomorrow but it doesn't mean that they are lying. But i see your point. This is your story and this all happened to you. You speak great truths. Nice poem

i am worthy to love openly, I am worthy to tell people about, I am not some little worthless piece of garbage, or a hooker to be kept in the closet..

people are blinded fools to believe their is no conditions to love, my condition is to love me openly with no shame, his is to hide his like some sort of secret....I will not be a secret...

that is your view justice he is lying to people that he loves her, hiding her is shame, denying how he feels...she did love him many ways, the most important one...

What do you want guaranteed? love? it is not a thing to own but a feeling to enjoy..this is the pain of a woman living a lie! In fear of exposing the truth about who she is and what she understands about the joy of being a loving person without the pain that she associates with love..it is not love that makes her feel this way but the lack of it...a thought provoking and interesting poem

to feel love - geniune love grow out of our hearts for someone is a gift; a blessing is to share that same kind of love in return; love never dies but if the soul cries sometimes the body must be removed for the soul to dance again with a partner that has intentions to be at peace with love.
