this poem was written after my wife left and for 20 years I never stopped loving her and in those years I looked into the face of the tiger. For an explanation of the phrase read my poem on this site 'Look in the face of the tiger'


Unrequited by M.A.Meddings

Unrequited

By M.A.Meddings

There is a feeling
In my heart
That will not go away
Even though I tried to guard
Against a heartache

It is a thing called love
A beautiful matter
So delicately balanced
And in its entirety
A precious thing

A gift that goes on forever
A matter of the soul
That even though
She disdains it now
It will remain

Pure and true if unrequited

love it does many things to one's soul. Left to the heart, love can go on forever. The mind has its say and often times we must listen to it as well so that we can go on. good write, kathy
