They Say...

They Say love takes time, yet They don't say how much

They Say true love must be tried by fire…They don't say what kind of fire...could it be my lack of trust?

They Say men don’t love like women…They weren't there went we locked eyes and spoke love through our knowingness of the other's heart.

His gaze, one day, started to fade away. I turned my eyes away to avoid the pain….the humiliation of his vanishing act.

I invested too much of myself…too soon, I bemoaned! Now, nothing’s gold.

I love him. I'm over him. I'm better than him. I need him. I'm okay without him. I'm not okay with me. I miss you and me.

My heart is sick. They never told me how the sickness would feel. My eyes burn with stinging water.

His zeal and fire for me, while brief, was electrifying!

It's the lonliest of all of the kinds of love, it seems....this electric love.

They Say, "Love takes time…the best love must be tried by fire….men don’t love like women."

They Say because They have felt this suffering.

I see his footprints now...they're leaving me, yet forever imbeded in my heart.

I tested the recipe without studying its ingredients. Now, I know better...

They Say was right all along!
