Cleft Hy Heart In A Twain Poem by Ben Akinpelumi

It hurts to love someone and
not be loved in return. But what
is more painful is to love
someone and never find the
courage to let that person
know how you feel. Maybe God wants us to meet a
few wrong people before
meeting the right ones, so that
when we finally meet the right
person we will know how to be
grateful for that gift. Love is when you take away
the feeling, the passion and the
romance of relationship and
find out you still care for that
person. A sad thing in life is when you
meet someone who means a
lot to you, only to find out in the
end that it was never meant to
be and you just have to let go. When the door of happiness
closes another opens but often
times we look so long at the
closed door but we don't see
the one which has been opened
for us. The best kind of friend is the
kind you can just be with..
never say a word and then
walk away feeling like it was
the best conversation you've
ever had. It is true that we don't know
what we've got until we lose it
but it is also true that we don't
know what we've been
missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is
never an assurance that they
love you back. Don't expect
love in return, Just wait for it to
grow in their heart, but if it
doesn't, be content it grew in yours! There are things you'd love to
hear, that you will never hear
from the person whom you'd
like to hear them from. But
don't be so deaf as not to hear
it from the one who says it from their heart. Never say goodbye if you still
want to try. Never give up if
you still feel you can go on.
Never say you don't love a
person anymore if you can't let
go. Love comes to those who still
hope, although they have been
disappointed, to those who still
believe, although they have
been betrayed, to those who
still need to love, although they have been hurt before and to
those who have courage and
faith to build trust again. It takes only a minute to get a
crush on someone, an hour to
like someone, a day to love
someone but it takes a lifetime
to forget someone. Don't go for looks, they can
deceive you; don't go for
wealth even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes
you smile because it takes only
a smile to make dark days seem bright. Hope you find the
someone that makes you smile.
