~ A Loser In Love ~

~ A Loser In Love ~

I have sung the song deeply and deeply run
The shores from Mcneeley are everyone's
I have dug the grave deeper than has ever been dug
And found myself wanting, a loser in love

During the rainy season of 'ol Tipperary
A man washed up on shore at new Harpers Ferry
Found with a gun, in his 'ol safe contrary
Never charged with a thing, that he'd ever done

So I rode the world over in search of contrition
Knowing never I'd find, a safe place to be wishin'
For a solitary piece of peace's safe edition
I knew it the day I knew a loser in love

And so as I fade into the annals of my life
I wish to admit, to a few cantankerous wives
That never once did I, believe I was a lyin'
For I freely admit, to being a loser in love....

Having been around the block a few times, I learned that every relationship I get myself into will end, one way or another. Enjoy them while they last because they never do! Great emotion in this write.

Love is sweet and unkind, is a mission and a challenge and worth it's weight is gold and tears.
It elates the years and tumbles them down.Β 
Love is a smile and a frown.Β 
So lucky to have experienced and keep forever in your heart.Β

Be well yourself.Β 
In every way.Β 
I know that illness strikes as many lashes as you can just tolerate, sometimes we can feel like aΒ  soldier who may be off course, but all areΒ  very valuable in depth and meaningful thoughts.Β 
Especially you.Β 
Fight on dear friends.Β 
And I will two.Β

I guess we've all been there Tony and your great writing hits home a few times.
Love hurts and Love kills and we're all fools for Love.
Superb ink again and thank you for writing again more than a touch of poetry class and taking forlorn subject matter and weaving such poetry gold from it.
Wishing you well and respect to you my friend.
