WHEN LOVE AIN'T NEW

WHEN LOVE AIN'T NEW

I love her, I love him
Sounds so unique,
When love is new this how you usually think
All encompassing thoughts
Seems jus right when love begins
Starting out as  just  friends
Romance is  sparked,
Characterized by walks, or
Staring at one another in the park
Sometimes even way after dark,
Followed by talks on the phone
Til all times of night, as affection 
Is on your display and
Everything in your world just feels right!
But sometimes weather changes
And love loses sunlight
As the love you thought would last
Is now in danger, as you try to rearrange
Desparately remembering the past,
Feelings out of control, love soured
Has your soul scoured,  for in your heart
There is now a hole that slowly replaces
Where you felt most whole.
Causes are many, as time reveals many
Idiosyncrasies  are Plenty and come out real bold
Discrepancies exposed 
As a sign to let you know love that is new 
Has gotten old.  Now you are tired
And refuse to continue, as the taste
Of this  particular love you no
Longer desire to be on your menu
So how do you feel or stop to feel
When Love Ain’t New?  There are
Signs all the time, as to why it
Couldn’t last, maybe it was physical
That you actually felt, only to realize
The waxing has been dealt.  
Other Times financial that burns your love Desire 
and melts the pot that simmered Your stew.  
ONLY IF YOU COULD OF KNEW, WHAT ACTUALLY COMES FROM
BEING GROWN AND THRU A LOVE THAT WAS NO LONGER NEW.
That love is a job, that you must stay on!
No time for vacations or layoffs, love is
Not singular but plural, although you go
In it quite single, it’s the willingness to
Co-mingle and work at it that keeps love New 
and if worked at long enough your
Love will in time improve.  As experience will show and 
EnAble you to know when to let up or get out and go
Cuz you feeling  or sensing that love Ain’t true
 and the love you had is no longer new!
LOVE  EVERYDAY SO THAT YOU MAY BE LOVED IN EVERY WAY!
Peace

Hey SILKYTWEED! this poem makes me ask the question, was that love in the beginning? we tend to confuse Love with Lust. This poem makes me evaluate the next time I think I enocunter Love, make sure that it is! SMILZZZZ FAB! ENJOYED IT!

Thanks Lizology, that is a good question, you can only answer in the midst, lust usually is shorter lived than love spiced up and enhanced by passion....by no means am I an expert, but a willing student (wink)...LOL...Thankyou!

Hello, SILKYTWEED This Poem is So True, A Relationship, In The Beginning When New Is So Beautiful, An Breath Taking. And, When Everything Settles In Like Circumstances, and Settling Into One Another, You Began To Get A Clearer Picture Of Where You Really Are With Someone. If You Love Someone, The Realities Of Life's Circumstances, Can Be An Interruption We Can Lose Site On Whats Really Important In The First Place. That Is: What We Each Wanted From The Very Beginning! I Believe That If Two People Love One Another, With A Commitment To That Relationship, And To Each Other, With Mutual Respect, Dedication,Hard Work Along With Understanding And Friendship, And A Willingness To Keep Things New, Then, They Can Keep That Relationship Alive, And Bring Back The Newness, And Sometimes, Keep Falling In love, Throughout Their Lives! Always Easy? No But, If Both Want It Badly Enough, Anything Is Possible. I Especially love the Part That Begins: Love Is A Job You Must Stay On...............And, Ends With Love In Time Will Improve! This Poem Ends So Beautifully! And Positive! Thank You For Sharing!

Yeah there is usually not anything about love that should be characterized as short term....I believe LOVE to be everlasting...(smile) Thanks for your encouraging comments...

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
