~ Meghan Chaundy

Love can be a burden or a blessing, Thou mustn’t push it too far from ones core. The pain shall leave me over obsessing; I shan’t surrender my joy any more. The birds hum and I’ll listen intently, Falling open armed into the abyss, I shall not plummet but alight gently And be rewarded with a true love’s kiss. A profound moment just the way I prayed; But Spring can’t stay, and lovers turn away, Flowers die and the sun begins to fade. Soon enough the memories turn to gray. Lovers can leave and turn your heart to char, Unforgiving and leaving you to scar.
