In Love As In Life Poem by Francis Duggan

In love as in life all is not always fair
And the ache of lost love does take time to repair
The one you love in your life may not choose to stay
Love does have it's sorrows it does seem this way
The ways of love have not changed for centuries of years
It can bring great happiness as well as heartache and tears
When tender feelings are hurt sorrow is your gain
And they take time to heal the scars of mental pain
The one you love may not be in love with you
For another his or her feelings may be more true
In love as in life it is always this way
You win some and lose some as some like to say
But in years from now in hindsight you will recall
That time is the greatest healer of them all.
