What If Love Dies?
Mary Hathaway
Love has an infinite heart
and cannot stay in a narrow mind.
It is always sweeping on and on,
always living, growing and becoming.
And those who have stopped
changing and growing
have stopped loving.
We can think we still love
because we continue to go through the motions.
But where there should be
a garden of joy,
there is only a dusty tombstone
on which is written,
"Love once passed this way
but this heart was too small
to contain it.
It would not dare to grow
and yield utterly to love,
so love had to leave it----
long, long ago."

She Won't Cry
by Jppoet
You see the pain that lies in her eyes,
But, alas, her eyes are dry,
She won't cry.
No, she won't cry.
You see the anger that burns from her gaze,
The madness that sets her eyes ablaze,
She won't cry.
No, she won't cry.
You see the fear that closes her eyes,
The smile she wears is but a disguise,
She won't cry.
No, she won't cry.
You see the hope that is finally dead,
She cannot trust for her heart has been bled,
She won't cry.
No, she won't cry.
You see the love that lies within,
But she shall never love again,
She won't cry.
No, she won't cry.
You see death's hand that has glazed her eyes,
No one saw her die inside,
They won't cry.
No, they won't cry.

Till Light Breaks
I've never seen a night so long or so quiet
A cold wind whispers his name through the pines
While night clouds race across a starless sky sublime
If God made the day, then the devil made this night
Tonight my memories are chasing him in my mind
And what havoc they wreak in their desperate plight
To catch him, hold him, only to find,
He has vanished, slipped away into the everlasting night
Still I don't know what I did wrong,
What I should have said, should have done
I would never have guessed I could hurt so long
But then I never expected him to be gone
I walk to the window and peer into the endless night
The clouds and the wind are gone now, there's only the moon
And tall, dark trees jutting up toward the ebony sky
A night bird calls out and my heart is filled with gloom
I never knew love until I knew you, love
Now all is gone, another's arms hold you
Another's lips sets your heart on fire, love
And someone else hears you whisper 'I love you'
I'm afraid this night will outlast the bottle of wine
Then what will I do, while I wait on the light
Of the sun breaking o'er the tall pines in the morning sky
To give me reprieve till the next eternal night.

Letting Go
How do you walk away from someone you love
And take the road of friend;
Can you reroute the course you have taken
And start over once again?
I don't really want to let you go
But inside me I know I must;
The times we've loved . . . the times you've left
My heart says stay . . . but it's my mind I must trust.
We have shared so much together
Laughter . . . fun times . . . tears;
Yet sometimes we can't turn back time
We must walk away, and allow ourselves to heal.
I know one day you will be happy
And your soulmate you will find;
I know we each have one out there
Even if for now . . . only in our minds.
May life be gentle with you
May God's best come your way;
And on some quiet tomorrow
You will realize things were better this way.

I Hide To Cry
I hide to cry
because I have no where to call my own
and "happily ever after" is a land too far away,
just after once- upon- a- time; just this side of the rainbow
and no one really cares anyway
I hide to cry
because I know I will never leave this place
and dreams don't really come true
its just all make- believe
and it really doesn't matter
I hide to cry
because my weakness brings my tears
and I have no one to hold me close
no one here who loves me
and no one really cares anyway
I hide to cry
because I embarrass the moon
and she is my only friend
but she's too far away to hold my hand
and it really doesn't matter anyway
I hide to cry
because no one really cares anyway
and is this pain even real
it really doesn't matter
and no one really cares anyway
I hide to cry
because no one validates my pain
and no one really cares
so why should I
and it really doesn't matter anyway

Convalescent
Dorothy Parker
How shall I wail, that wasn't meant for weeping?
Love has run and left me, oh, what then?
Dream, then, I must, who never can be sleeping;
What if I should meet Love, once again?
What if I met him, walking on the highway?
Let him see how lightly I should care.
He'd travel his way, I would follow my way;
Hum a little song, and pass him there.
What if at night, beneath a sky of ashes,
He should seek my doorstep, pale with need?
There could he lie, and dry would be my lashes;
Let him stop his noise, and let me read.
Oh, but I'm gay, that's better off without him;
Would he'd come and see me, laughing here.
Lord! Don't I know I'd have my arms about him,
Crying to him, "Oh, come in, my dear!"

Knowing When Love Is Through
Michael Mack
Once an egg is broken, it can never be replaced.
You're not the one to fall.
Once a word is written, it can never be erased.
Once a shoe has worn out, its usefulness has, too
And one of the things of knowing love
Is knowing when it's through.
Once a flower has wilted, its fragrance disappears
Once a word is spoken, it will echo through the years.
Once a match has burned out, it will never flame anew
And one of the things of knowing love
Is knowing when it's through.
Funny all the time spent on half-forgotten dreams.
Funny all the energy we waste on foolish schemes.
We wouldn't strike that matchstick to watch it flame anew,
Why, then, can't we know enough
To know when love is through?
So, on we go, relentlessly, in spite of tears and pain
Trying to stop the leaves from falling
Trying to stop the rain,
But, once a heart is broken, it will always be in two,
And one of the things of knowing love
Is knowing when it's through.

The Art of Letting Go
Consrael
It's over. He's gone.
Why do we have to part while the love is still there? Why do we have to suffer? Why do we have to cry when somebody bids goodbye? Why do beginnings have an end? Why do we have to meet only to lose in the end?
There are questions left unanswered, words left unsaid, letters left unread, poems left undone, songs left unsung, love left unexpressed, promises left unfulfilled.
In a relationship, one of the hardest things to do is saying goodbye and letting go. It is as hard as breaking a crystal because you'll never know when you will be able to pick up the pieces again. More often than not, they who go, feel not the pain of parting:it is they who stay behind that suffer, because they are left with memories of a lovethat was meant to be, a love that was.
At the beginning and at the end of a relationship, we are embarrassed to find ourselves alone. Unfair as it may seem, but that's the way love goes. That's the drama, the bittersweet and the risk of falling in love. After all, nothing is constant but change. Everything will eventually come to its end without us knowing when, without us knowing how, without us even knowing why. And we must forget not because we have to but because we have to.
In letting go, sorrows come not as a single spy but in batallion. It seems that everywhere you go, everything you do, every song you hear, every turn of your head,every move of your body, every beat of your heart, every blink of your eye and every breath you take always reminds you of him. It's like a stab of a knife, a torture in the night. Funny how the whole world becomes depopulated when only one person is missing. Just imagine, there are billion people on earth and yet it seems you feel lonely and empty without the other.
I don't know if it's worth calling an art, but letting go entails special skills sparkled with a considerable space and time. Time heals all wounds but it takes a little push on our part. Acceptance plays a part. Not all love stories end with "...and they live happily ever after."
Sometimes we have to part because of circumstances beyond our control. We have to suffer if it would mean happiness for others. We have to cry to temporarily let go of the pains. Every beginning has its end like every dawn has its dusk. It's something we can't control, something we had to live up.
It's over. He's gone. But life has to go on. Goodbye doesn't always mean forever. There will always be a place and time where questions will be answered, words will be spoken, letters will be read, poems will be recited in the night, songs will be sung in harmony, love will be expressed in solitude and promises will be fulfilled. Somewhere. Somehow. Someday.
