Love’s pathway

Rejection
An unspoken sneer
 In his eyes appear
 A smile curves my lip
 As love gives a slip.

 Dejection
Withdrawn into a cave forlorn
 Timidly holding on to fate unborn
 Amidst open spaces and silence
 Leaning on unknown resilience.

 Projection
I see what is not there
 The whispers and words unfair
 Scarred with unseen scar
 Every sight, a mirage afar.

    This is the pathway of love… I have walked it many a time. I often wonder if there is a simpler path… one with signs and markers… one with a “do not enter” sign.

    This poem is beautiful. As always you are a master word weaver. Just trying to make a dark situation seem lighter. I have been in darkness before

    Mysoul says – Thank you. Enreal. There is a simpler Path(I heard someone talk of it) but I havent found it yet. I am glad for Darkness, cause I have learned to cherish the Light whenever I see it, because of it.

    This is now what love is. This is a negative way to perceive love. Love is acceptance, not rejection. It is going deeper and not projection.

    Mysoul says – I agree, Love is about acceptance. Thats the Ideal. I look at how it manifests in the living reality. Not many people get it right, if they did, we wouldnt have so many heartaches.

    I love how you concretize emotions…it’s assuring to the mind. :)

    Mysoul says – Thank you Tom. I like keeping my feet on the ground, cant say much about my head in the clouds though :P .

    Oh, going minimalist, mysoul! You’ve woven great lines here.

    I think we all go through the emotions you described here so beautifully.

    Keep holding (or leaning) on that unknown resilience. It’s always gonna be there to hold you up. :-)

    GBU! :-)

    ‘Rejection’ is my favorite. I think that is one we all experience quite often, not just in love either. ‘Projection’ brought a rueful smile to my eye, so many times wishing for what is not there. very… true, I like it.
    Thank you.
