Unrequited Love
Is there a more painful kind?
Swinging us from the highest of highs
To the deepest of despairing lows
And back againIt has been the basis of and inspiration for so many great works of literature and music, and so much more poignant, deeply private poetry and prose.
I'm sure somebody once wrote something like - the greatest pain is to love and love in vain. And just quietly I reckon they're right.
Doesn't matter whether it's your mum or dad or pdoc or T, the girl or boy who lived next door or down the street, or someone you see every day at work or school, or on a bus or a train. It just hurts so much sometimes.
I think the Everly Brothers got it pretty well right:
Love hurts
Love scars
It wounds and mars
Any heart not tough
Nor strong enough
To take a lot of pain
Take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts.It must be so hard to hold this inside when you see it as something so beautiful and wonderful and good, and yet seemingly so wrong and bad at the same time.
I know there's not a damn thing I can say or do that'll make it hurt any less for you Susan - wish there was, I really do.
((((((((((Susan))))))))))
Just know that there is much in you and about you that is beautiful and loveable. You deserve to feel and experience love, loving, and being truly loved and I wish those things for you.
