~ 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....

Hi Tony,
Good - what we go through -
but they'll always be me and you.
Love,
Anne & Terry.

LOL!!....thanx Anne & Terry!!...you guys are pretty cool!!......smiles...T xo : )
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.
Thanx JOHN!!...and while you're probably right...I pray that there are exceptions!!.....smiles....thanx bro!!....T xoΒ : )
There are and Iβm now married to that exception. Took many years to find her.Β But, even that wonβt last when the sun sets for the final time.
I think you may be wrong there my friend.....for the unknown has plans for the heart!!.....smiles......TΒ
I like that thought. π
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
You're so right....and this is truly a kind comment...and greatly appreciated my friend......be well Liliana......sorry for the late reply....haven't been myself lately!!.....smiles.....T xoΒ : )
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

Love, " sometimes it lasts, but sometimes it hurts instead"
I hope you're OK πΒ

Hmmm!!??.......lol......I love you Marion!!.....smiles!!....T xo
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.
SHAUN!!...I do so look forward to your comments....and having just read your latest poem....I am honored brother!!.....you are in a class all your own!.....lots of respect!!......T xo
it always intriguesΒ me to no end how inspiration pops into a poets head, even if at the moment they are confident and assured. I myself have to be in a very blue state of mind for my muse to write. I envy your way of always writing with such style, grace and your ability to write such a blue ink. well done
WOW DARKLY!!....I'm so glad I caught this comment from you......it is more than you normally have to say on my poems and this makes me ever so happy to read/see......Thank you so much my friend......i am most appreciative!!.....smiles......T xoΒ : )
It is very hard for me to properly praise someones work because poetry means something so different to each individual. I guess I would feel quite embarssed if I say something incorrect or inapproperate. I don't want to inadvertently hurt someones feelings. So I limit to very few words because of that fear
