 315. For Love
No one ever gets tired of loving.
But everyone gets tired of
Waiting,
Breaking promises,
Assuming,
Hearing Lies,
Saying sorry
And hurting...

And…
Most of all
Everyone gets
Tired of
Being told
That it's
Out of love
That one should
Endure such things
For Love…

No.
No.
No.

I'm not talking
About when
You are waiting
For your beloved
To get home
To smother them
In kisses and adoration
Because the spouses
Of soldiers
Would eagerly
Wait a living
Return
Out of the greatest
Love.

I'm not talking about
When we are
Assuming the best
Out and for
A five year old
Child…
Because at five
They don't really
Know how not
To for the love
And adoration
Of their
Fathers
And
Mothers.

I'm not talking about
Saying your sorry
When you
Find out
The one you love
Has stage IV cancer
And there
Is nothing else
To say.

I'm talking about
When he back hands
You
And says he's sorry
But he'll
Do it again
Next week.

I'm talking about
Breaking your promise
To be there
This time
Because there
Have been
Too many times
Your folks
Have left you
Waiting
And they don't
Show up
Again…
Or ever.

I'm talking about
Lying to your
Beloved
About where
You've been
And who you
Were with
And why
Because you
Think the lie
Is more loving…
It never is.

I don't know
What you would
Do
For love…
But I will wait
A decade for
You to realize
I never stopped
Loving you.

I will never
Get tired of
Waiting for you
To learn what
You need to
And be on the
Other side
When you
Die
Just to prove
Love is Eternal.

I will hold you
Whether I have
Known you
For 30 seconds
Or 30 years…

For love
For my
Divine Beloved
For my human
Beloveds…
The only limited
Measure is
The limits of
This body…
But my heart…
Has none.

I love you.
I love you.
I love you.

Now.
Always.
Forever.
