You Never Do

I’m going to tell you what others won’t:

It’s tough to discover that you’ll never recover from the loss of a lover.

You’ll try to bend so that you can mend

the many pieces of your broken

heart.

Yet, as you do

You’ll come to see

those pieces simply don’t fit back

together so effortlessly.

So, then you begin a new pursuit to reboot yourself,

so that you can love another.

You put forth the effort,

but despite all attempts

the kisses you gave

the love that was made

never meant the same.

All you will do is simply compare

the love that you lost

to what you once had-your

greatest love of all.

And finally you will come to terms

that such a true love comes

around only once.

And then you will realize:

you’ll never, no never

ever recover from a love that was

lost.
