    WHEN LOVE AIN'T NEW
    I love her, I love him
    Sounds so unique,
    When love is new this how you usually think
    All encompassing thoughts
    Seems jus right when love begins
    Starting out as  just  friends
    Romance is  sparked,
    Characterized by walks, or
    Staring at one another in the park
    Sometimes even way after dark,
    Followed by talks on the phone
    Til all times of night, as affection 
    Is on your display and
    Everything in your world just feels right!
    But sometimes weather changes
    And love loses sunlight
    As the love you thought would last
    Is now in danger, as you try to rearrange
    Desparately remembering the past,
    Feelings out of control, love soured
    Has your soul scoured,  for in your heart
    There is now a hole that slowly replaces
    Where you felt most whole.
    Causes are many, as time reveals many
    Idiosyncrasies  are Plenty and come out real bold
    Discrepancies exposed 
    As a sign to let you know love that is new 
    Has gotten old.  Now you are tired
    And refuse to continue, as the taste
    Of this  particular love you no
    Longer desire to be on your menu
    So how do you feel or stop to feel
    When Love Ain’t New?  There are
    Signs all the time, as to why it
    Couldn’t last, maybe it was physical
    That you actually felt, only to realize
    The waxing has been dealt.  
    Other Times financial that burns your love Desire 
    and melts the pot that simmered Your stew.  
    ONLY IF YOU COULD OF KNEW, WHAT ACTUALLY COMES FROM
    BEING GROWN AND THRU A LOVE THAT WAS NO LONGER NEW.
    That love is a job, that you must stay on!
    No time for vacations or layoffs, love is
    Not singular but plural, although you go
    In it quite single, it’s the willingness to
    Co-mingle and work at it that keeps love New 
    and if worked at long enough your
    Love will in time improve.  As experience will show and 
    EnAble you to know when to let up or get out and go
    Cuz you feeling  or sensing that love Ain’t true
     and the love you had is no longer new!
    LOVE  EVERYDAY SO THAT YOU MAY BE LOVED IN EVERY WAY!
    Peace

    Hey SILKYTWEED! this poem makes me ask the question, was that love in the beginning? we tend to confuse Love with Lust. This poem makes me evaluate the next time I think I enocunter Love, make sure that it is! SMILZZZZ FAB! ENJOYED IT!

    Thanks Lizology, that is a good question, you can only answer in the midst, lust usually is shorter lived than love spiced up and enhanced by passion....by no means am I an expert, but a willing student (wink)...LOL...Thankyou!

    Hello, SILKYTWEED This Poem is So True, A Relationship, In The Beginning When New Is So Beautiful, An Breath Taking. And, When Everything Settles In Like Circumstances, and Settling Into One Another, You Began To Get A Clearer Picture Of Where You Really Are With Someone. If You Love Someone, The Realities Of Life's Circumstances, Can Be An Interruption We Can Lose Site On Whats Really Important In The First Place. That Is: What We Each Wanted From The Very Beginning! I Believe That If Two People Love One Another, With A Commitment To That Relationship, And To Each Other, With Mutual Respect, Dedication,Hard Work Along With Understanding And Friendship, And A Willingness To Keep Things New, Then, They Can Keep That Relationship Alive, And Bring Back The Newness, And Sometimes, Keep Falling In love, Throughout Their Lives! Always Easy? No But, If Both Want It Badly Enough, Anything Is Possible. I Especially love the Part That Begins: Love Is A Job You Must Stay On...............And, Ends With Love In Time Will Improve! This Poem Ends So Beautifully! And Positive! Thank You For Sharing!

    Yeah there is usually not anything about love that should be characterized as short term....I believe LOVE to be everlasting...(smile) Thanks for your encouraging comments...

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.

    Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) American poet.
