The Heartache of Love's Defeat

When Love Fails, but the Memories Remain

By sankar kPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

The heartache of love's defeat, a pain so real,

A wound that lingers, a wound that we feel.

When love fails, and the dreams we once held,

Are shattered to pieces, and our hearts are compelled.

It's a battle we fought, a war we did wage,

With the hopes of love, we stood at the stage.

But love can be cruel, and it can be tough,

And it can leave us broken, with a heart so rough.

But love also leaves behind, memories so sweet,

Of laughter and love, and moments to keep.

And though love may fail, it's the memories that remain,

A reminder of the love, that once caused so much pain.

So let us cherish the memories, the love that once was,

And know that it was real, and it will always be because.

For love may fail, but the memories remain,

A testament to the love, that once caused so much pain.

So don't let love's defeat, break your heart and soul,

For it's the memories that will make you whole.

And one day, you'll look back, with a smile on your face,

And know that love's defeat, was a mere test of time and grace.
