parted oceans

there is no true love that has never been broken
nor can mar with a heart felt hard felt heart break
we have loved and we have let alone
and the bulk of fugitive love indeed is troublesome

there are two parts now for broken lovers
that each might go their seperate way
i will now wear the crucifix instead of your pendant
clinging unto the love of the cross repentant

love is pure but nothing humanly isnt impure
it starts with a fiery hue but soon is azure
love lost is a lasting lingering beligering emotion
that transpires as a bridge between the flow of oceans

there is no true love that has never been broken
and now like a bird out of a cage my heart is open
maybe to love again,or maybe to search evermore
but never to find a girl with the same allure

Good write!

Hello Emeka ozurumba, I loved the theme you were going for in this. The second stanza caught my eye: "there are two parts now for broken lovers that each might go their seperate way" Those are great lines!
