She cried when her true love died,

She cried when her true love died,
when the oceans went away.
She left her home behind
and went to die and decay.
there she met someone, who just like her was hurt.
Who also cried his nights away
longing for those deep in dirt.
Until the day a new love was born,
and tears were shed no more.
And never again her heart was torn
for only burdens of love she bore.

    Wow, I can not even imagine the pain that I would feel if the man I loved were to die, God Forbid. I'm really sorry... if this is personal.. hm.. the catagorie it's under says it is. I hope you are feeling better! You're a great person and deserve the best!

    Take Care,
    Jasmine

    Compassionate; They say that people living through trauma together either end up together forever--or just won't work out. It's nice that the former occured in your piece. I really liked the "longing for those deep in dirt," the alliteration works well and it's much better than "gone" or whatever overused saying there is. Nicely done!

    This is really good. This shows exactly what people face when they lose thier loved one. It shows how even though all the pain the person may one day find someone and be able to love again.

    i cried when the one who i thought was my true loved died. he was everything to me, he was a frined a lover and everything inbetween. i loved him for who he was, and he loved me back. there was a bond that we our selves couldn't break. and the night i got that call it was all over for me. i cried for what seemed like hours. i thoughtht the tears would never stop because my heart had been ripped from my chest. i still haven't moved on completly but i'm trying. it's not easy to get over something that over bearing. love is such a strong emotion and you can't change what you heart feels.
