true love never dies - an original poem
true love never dies
memories of a hot and steaming love
in the spring of life five decades ago
it felt that they fit like a glove
unexperienced lovers so brightly aglow
a much different time it was back then
not being married you must stay apart
repressing love feeling time and again
with passion raging in their heart
then at some time their love goes bad
and their devotion crashes on the rocks
because of this violent alcoholic dad
left only memories and photos in a box
so decades pass and then memories revive
of this unforgettable passionate holiday
she now secretly wonders is he still alive
decides to write a letter, come what may
so after so many years again they meet
much older, grey and so much more wise
with watery eyes and smiles they greet
over coffee talk about their olden highs
it now seems that not even a week has past
they reminisce, cry and are holding hands
rekindling their love quite unsurpassed
as they forget again times running sands

Love has never been good to me but I believe that there is true love out there. I just feel that it is not for me. Lovely poem.
Well, love has given me a kick in the gut a few times too but I still want and need it. There is someone out there for everyone, you're just not gonna find that person by hiding away though. So I get out there anyway, shaking in my boots and feeling brave.
Nice poem...truly true love never dies
Nope it doesn't... It just goes deeper and hurts more if it's unfullfilled.
"she now secretly wonders is he still alive
decides to write a letter, come what may"
Indeed, true love never dies. But it also needs a bit of an effort on the both of them. In this case, it was never too late to believe in love again. 😊
Thank you... Yes, love is a verb and not without a reason :D
umuntu ngumuntu ngabantu!, whats that?
google could've told you that too, but i will tell you. It's Zulu and means: "A person is a person through other persons." or "I am what I am because of who we all are.”
