Truer
words never spoken.
A wonderful
friend said this to me recently and I love her for it.
She’s
reached the age of maturity.
She’s
wise.
She’s
fun.She’s
true.
She‘s
battling what life has and is throwing her way and right now- she’s winning.
Most
importantly she’s doing it with class.
Love
you Mrs. P.
Funny
old thing, this word love.
We love
movies.
Love
lemon pie.
Love
summer and love special times in our lives.
What
would life be without love?
Empty,
I suppose.
Love can
be given.
It can
be taken away.
It can’t
be controlled or taken lightly or unwisely.
At times
love can bite you square in the ass. You do what you think is right and good.
You stand by someone. Love them and yet they forsake you and kick you out.
They
have no time for you.
They are
on a new journey.
You’re
still on board the sinking ship looking for a rescue and they’ve sailed away in
the lifeboat.
Fuck ‘em!
That’s
what I say!
They love
you.
Respect
you.
Appreciate
you.
Give
you some rope.
Some
space.
Some
time and then they turn around and don’t want you anymore- don’t love you
anymore.
Why?
Sometimes
we just don’t know.
Times change.
Things
change.
Life
changes.
You
believe you stay the same but in all probability, you change as well.
What
can you do?
Not
much.
You
stay on the right path.
You
walk along.
Maybe
someday you’ll meet them at the crossroads of life.
Maybe
not.
I do
know that our time on this earth is all too short and we need not spend the
rest of our time worrying about it and wondering why.
Pull up
your socks.
Bravely
step forward- yes without the same love you had.
Love
can be wonderful yet it can be cruel too.
It’s
not love that’s cruel.
It’s
the "someone" who gives it.
They
forget how.
They
forget why.
Their
circuits go numb.
They
only think about themselves.
Love is
funny that way.
