Love's Pain: Overcoming the Sadness of a Failed Marriage

The Journey to Healing and Finding Hope in a Broken Relationship

By Carl GoffPublished about a year ago 1 min read

The pain of a broken marriage

cuts like a razor sharp-edged knife,

a wound that never seems to heal,

a shadow that blots out all of life.

Dreams that were once shared together,

now lay shattered and forever broken,

promises made, all but forgotten,

like a fleeting thought, never spoken.

The weight of sadness hangs so heavy,

a burden too much to ever bear,

a storm cloud of sorrow, ceaseless and unending,

that darkens the world beyond compare.

But though the road is long and winding,

a journey that must be taken,

there is hope for new beginnings,

a chance for a life not utterly forsaken.

Love is the key that unlocks the door,

it gives us the courage to risk,

to be vulnerable, to trust once more,

and to find the beauty that can carry us forth and whisk.

For love is a strength, not a weakness,

it makes us brave, not a fool,

it fills the world with vibrant, radiant color,

and turns darkness into a brightness, light, and jewel.

So if you are lost in the depths of sorrow,

and your heart feels like it will break,

remember that hope is always near,

and love is a chance that you can take.

Embrace the pain, let it flow through you,

like the tide on a windy shore,

and know that one day, you'll find new joy,

and love will be the wind that helps you soar.
