The Love That Truly Stayed

Beyond many unfulfilled past connections, withstood a burdening leftover of heartaches waiting to be whole before reaching several daunting sources.

Unloving tribulations unable to reciprocate any faraway prior affections riddled with nagging memorable forces.

Constant near moments of post cravings cast aside, lingering under testy lock and keys.

Until a compelling admirer sought to reinstate a calming ongoing assurance beaming with adoring depth.

The one who parlayed worthiness into esteem value.

Never concealed an intriguing courtship from public domain.

Accumulated revealing strays of residual restraints to accommodate an actual appreciative flaw.

And still a permanent fixture even in crisis mode.

    You put it perfectly, how hard it is to love when you’ve been hurt. But I love that you included the fact that once the right person comes along, deep healing can begin.
