Heartache is a hand-me down <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Yes it happens over again. <br />We love, we lost we feel we never win. <br /> <br />But, somehow we heal and try to erase all the heartache that has traveled and found its place. <br /> <br />Life brings us sadness, <br />Life brings us shame. <br />Yet somehow or another it brings us a way. <br />To discover that love that we so selfishly take, <br />To turn heartache into happiness and begin with this new phase…. <br /> <br />Heartache is a hand-me down….. <br />Long ago left behind, <br />It’s traveled the miles and walked that steady line. <br /> <br />It does not choose who’s heart to brake it only happens once the heart takes. <br />That step towards that feeling of ever after and love. <br />That I can’t live without you feeling, that some of us know and trust. <br /> <br />Then when you least expect it, along comes that hand. <br />Heartache beckons, and you stand down and feel, <br />All that anger and resentment that no one understands, <br />And why does this keep happening, you only want a loving hand. <br /> <br />Again you’re left with the heartache. <br />The sadness and blame, <br />That hurt beyond all heartache that this will never end. <br />Hurt is to heal, as love is to hurt. <br />Together in its circle, it will work. <br /> <br />Heartache is that hand me down, <br />That not all us want, <br />We want the smiles and the laughter. <br />But, please leave out the tears and fears. <br /> <br />Everyday it happens, every moment it comes. <br />Every lifetime we spend we will be surrounded by love. <br />Just accept it as it’s given and live it while you can, <br />Know that it could be forever, and hope that it will never end.<br /><br />Rachel Fogle<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heartache-is-a-hand-me-down/
