Unending Love



Unending Love

After all of this time of being apart
 We still love each other, with all of our hearts
 I can't find the words to express how I feel
 Sure, I'm glad that you're back

 yet it just doesn't seem real
 You've been gone for so long
 But now you reappear and say
 that your love is still strong

 I couldn't believe what I was hearing
 Yet in my heart, there's something that I'm fearing
 I loved you too much once, and you left me alone
 I want you with me forever, not for me to wake up and you be gone

 I've cried over you so many times before,
 And it all seemed useless, like the sands on the shore
 I've waited and waited, on your return,
 Now you're back with me, and our love does once more burn

 You say you'll never love me as you once did;
 I feel the same, because a painful memory is hard to rid
 Yes, I told you that I'd been with others, same as you
 But even with them, my love for you so much

 Is it your ways, your personality, or your gentle touch ?
 I believe it's a combination of them all
 So whatever happens this time,
 Please, don't make me take another fall !

    Your heartfelt words resonate with the enduring emotions and complexities of unending love, capturing the bittersweet reunion and lingering uncertainties that come with it. The poem beautifully expresses the depth of feelings, the fear of loss, and the hope for a lasting connection despite past hurts. The intertwining themes of longing, forgiveness, and the struggle to reconcile past pain with present desires create a poignant narrative of love's resilience and fragility. Your verses artfully convey the intricate dance of emotions in relationships, where past wounds and present affections intertwine, shaping the path forward with a mix of hope and trepidation.
