Love That Will Never Be Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Tears pouring from my heart unmercifully, tearing me apart
within, for a love that will never be met here on earth,
desire and need intensely driving us, wanting to be at rest
in one another completely.

Alas, it is not meant to be and I continue to cry from the
very depths of my being, we are both too good and don't
want to hurt anyone we love.

So we sacrifice ourselves instead, giving up the only true
love ever had in life, letting it go now as the petals of
a rose being held in our hands, falling to the ground, dy-
ing because love will never be met while living.
