Love Never After
In the beginning he couldn’t get
enough of her.
He thought about her every
minute of every hour
of every day.
He couldn’t bear to be
away from her.
He felt like he couldn’t
ever live without her.
After they finally got married
and a few years passed,
and he got used to her
and she got used to him –
he argued all the time with her
and he liked it when she
was away from him,
and all the first love feelings
faded away forever.
Pity romantic love sometimes
ends like this.

Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
