WOMAN UNTOLD

Love and Sacrifice

By Fonki Ndenibi JoelPublished 2 months ago 2 min read

In the realm of love's intricate dance,

Where hearts entwine in a fateful trance,

A tale unfolds, a story of grace,

Of sacrifice and a steadfast embrace.

"I should have been," whispered the regret,

A sigh that lingered, burdened with fret,

She had the opportunity to let it all go,

To save herself from sorrow's cruel blow.

But instead, she chose to surrender her all,

To heed love's beckoning, to answer love's call,

In a world where choices can fray and untwine,

She embraced devotion, a choice so divine.

Never thought love could sacrifice this much,

A symphony of devotion, a tender touch,

She gave up her dreams, her desires untold,

For a love that shimmered, a love that would mold.

And in the depths of shadows, where doubt takes its toll,

She stood strong, unwavering, with a heart of gold,

For you, dear one, she traded her ease,

A selfless act, a love that would appease.

"I could have been the best," you ponder with pain,

Regret coursing through you like a relentless rain,

But in life's fickle tapestry, we often fall short,

Yet love's true essence, it can never distort.

You weren't there when she needed you most,

A bittersweet truth, a haunting ghost,

But in the labyrinth of life's winding trails,

Resilient love prevails, as it never fails.

How did it turn sour, this love once so sweet?

Questions unanswered, a heart incomplete,

Yet through it all, she never let go,

A beacon of hope in love's ebb and flow.

Her belief in you, steadfast and true,

A flame that burned bright, even when you withdrew,

She saw the potential, the best yet to be,

And held on tight, never setting love free.

In the depths of her eyes, a love that remained,

Unyielding, unbroken, though often strained,

For in the tapestry of love's intricate art,

She saw the beauty in your flawed, tender heart.

So, let not regret consume your soul,

For love's journey is never under our control,

Instead, embrace the gift of her unwavering trust,

A love that endures, in spite of the rust.

For she, dear soul, is a rare gem indeed,

A testament to love's unwavering creed,

And in her sacrifice, you'll find solace and peace,

A love that transcends, a love that won't cease.

In the symphony of love's sacred verse,

She chose you, above all, for better or worse,

So, cherish her presence, hold her so dear,

For love like this, my friend, is exceedingly rare.
