WELL

WELL of love, runs deep.
Sometimes don’t go, far enough.
May find love, goes sour.
Then need to, walk away.

Left a stain, must remove.
Bearing a scar, can see.
At a cost, that hurts.
Can’t live without, what next?

May decide keep, as is.
Live amongst muck, give up.
Too costly to, try again.
Or seek help, clean up.

Is it worth, the effort?
Is it worth, the cost?
Can’t go back, dried up.
Stay with what, you’ve got?

It is up, to you.
What now decide, to do.
Get advice so, have options.
Can’t stay with, how is.

It is an, agonizing process.
Is it worth, starting over?
Or simply accept, the loss.
Never give it, a try.

Just shut your, heart down.
Move on to, loveless life.
Going through motions, of living.
You’ve seen others, do it.

Not willing to, give up.
Accept will cost, try again.
Quality of life, is important.
Dig in and, get going.

That is how, it was.
When I came, to Maine.
After a year, almost left.
Going to go, back home.

But I loved, the state.
Why leave because, of some?
A year passed, then two.
Willing to just, dig in.

Knowing love was, out there.
Fearing what if, like before?
Almost made the, same mistake.
But thankfully I, did not!

Was wanting needing, true love.
Decided definitely worth, the wait.
Like this poem, kept going.
Then I hit, pay dirt!

I met someone, very special.
Knew at least, be friends.
Both willing see, if more.
Discovered it was, what joy!

Now in it, for life!
Every day full, of love!
Oh so worth, the commitment.
So glad that, I stayed!
