Other Side Of Love Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Other Side Of Love



Walking along shores of life, standing on the other side
of love, strangers facing one another on either side of
life and death.

No longer seeing one another, crying, forsaken, not able
to find what each of them once had, a total and effective
balance that falls apart between them.

Life no longer able to exist on this earth, walking away,
sadness flowing from eyes of grief, trying to come to
terms with what is left in this temporary and bereaved
life here on earth.

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

This poem comes out your completely opened heart. This is the saddest part of the gift of love which enhances our life continually when it is what Shakespeare called A MARRIAGE OF TRUE MINDS - that is marriage seen through the longest possible lens of past, present, future. But when the surviving partner is bereft of all the wonderful sharing compressed in the phrase TRUE MINDS, the suffering is solitary. There is no easy way to live through such loss. It is a kind of ultimate confrontation with our human mortality. Your way of coping is an ideal reaction: you are turning suffering into prayer and poetry! !
