Love Comes Late

by angellea
 
 
 
So many wasted years.

Desires unfulfilled - - heart battered.

 Wrong choices - - dreams shattered.

 Feelings concealed - - surfacing never.

 Continuing on - - trying forever

  to change things

  which cannot be changed.

 Lies are rampant - - struggles begin.

 Those loved most believe them - - cannot win.

 Where to turn, or what to do? - - I fear

 God is gone - - was He ever here?

  I think not.

  Evil prevails.

 Wants and needs cannot be met.

 Life not under own control yet.

 Energy drained from this body so frail.

 Soul may depart - - time will tell.

  Reason for living?

  One remains.

 Search continues - - hungry heart aches.

 Years number quickly - - also, mistakes.

 True love never known 'til much too late.

 Obstacles hinder - - this love must wait.

  Cannot be recognized...

  Must remain obscure.

 But, through it all, contentment abides.

 True love, at last, in heart resides.

 No one can take that love away.

 Whatever fate - - it is there to stay.

  Never to die...

  Love immortal.
