Crush The Blossom Fair

A covenant broken.
Is it possible I misunderstood?
The blossom of love shined
And lit the sky of my life.
It lasted such a short time
Then the bloom faded from your eyes.
For almost a silver year it diminished not in mine.
Yet in ignorance did my love continue to bloom.
Until the day your burden became too heavy,
Until you decided to do the right thing.
I rejoice in your freedom.
I am happy you feel clean.
What of me?
Your freedom became my doubt.
Your cleanliness became my uncertainty.
You walk in the light of confession,
I creep in the dark of betrayal.
Was it a conscious act
Or just a chance opportunity?
I forgive,
I pick up the pieces of my soul,
I carry the pain deep inside,
Where you will never see it.
Now I protect myself.
I will never allow you to hurt me again,
To gain access to my inner castle.
You broke the walls the first time,
But now you have helped build them back up.
All I am now belongs to me.
I willingly give you my body, my life, my heart, my fidelity.
You will never again have my soul.
Once shattered, once betrayed,
It will never again be left unguarded,
And run the risk of being hurled on the rocks of broken trust.

I have a cliche comment too:
'they say "it is better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all"
is this the same as "It is better to have got drunk, fallen down the stairs and broken your leg, than never to have got drunk at all?'
-Catherine Fox
beautiful poem! - once broken, the ability to trusy can never really be the same again.
But I guess we have to try. |

Sorry, it is better to forgive than to live with the pain, however it is well to remember the cause of the pain. That way the mistake will be less likely to occur again. I forgave, but I am guarded now. Once burned, twice learned. Let us just say I am cautious now.
