This poem was written a few years ago during a love affair that almost turned into a disastrous marriage. I still have passion but not in a way that hurts. Also check out my profile which explains my journey a bit
My love is white-hot fire
cooled and shamed
By your indifference and disdain
Can you be both blind and mean
Not to see inside of me?
What I feel, what I do; to always reveal the man in you
You hunger for passion, but never learned
The benefits that loving back returns
Don’t hide away and hurt the one
Who bring you bright moon and burning sun
Leave your anger, leave your blame!
I’ve never learned to play that game
Feel the sea, the raging sea
The woman who personifies ecstasy

I often wonder how someone who is supposed to love someone can demonstrate such behavior that causes such deep distress and pain to the other. I have to believe that they do not think about the pain they are causing. Either they are not aware or something prevents them from thinking about it. I cannot believe that my husband would have done what he did if he had thought about the pain it would cause me. No human would want to inflict that amount of pain on anyone but their enemies, so why would my husband want to do that to me…I have done nothing but love him ( even when he was unlovable).. It’s my view that they don’t think they just DO. I’m sure he still does not realize what he did, and never will.

I’ve been through that kind of pain a few times and they say the first cut is the deepest. But pain is pain. I was always surprised when I got burned. Take care aloha
