Old Loves...
It hurts to reminisce ...
what could have been.
The missed opportunities,
the love that was denied.

Soul Mate...
I believe in such a thing...
Where is mine?
Is it possible to pass him by?

True Love...
Tranquil,
Tender,
Sweet,
Understanding,
Touching,
Caring,
Symbiotic,
Forever More

Where?
Who?
Why?
When?
How?

The ache I feel in my soul.
I mourn the absence of this dear person.
Have I been careless?
Have I been less fortunate?
Are some allowed this life's treasure and some not?
Is forgiveness possible?

I often feel unworthy of such a love.
My rational contradicts this, but it's hard to knock the feeling.

Love: a garden that needs tending
Why is love unrequited?
Can deep, intimate, precious love be fleeting love?
Can a life be filled with such love and not enduring, forgiving, lifelong love?
So sad, so tragic.
Some are fortunate, some are not.
Is life really so cruel?
