I'm a bit confused by this one. Did the relationship survive? I don't understand the meaning of "Heed of direction, to things that were planned," nor do I get the "My trust is the nightmare..." Are you saying your suspicions of infidelity tore you apart? Are you starting over alone? Also, one of my pet peeves is awkward combos like "contemplate on." The "on" is redundant; you might reflect ON something but you wouldn't contemplate on it. Sorry.

Oh, too many "together forever" scenarios in our world. Whatever happened to "for better or worse" in our vows. You describe the tragedy well. Thank you for posting.

You are certainly a prolific writer of beautiful
poems, I love this one.
I love these lines...

Values of honor, scarred deep in my heart

Now I contemplate in life's new surprise,
What is to happen, can you surmise?

Have a wonderful Sunday.

Brilliant wording and the final line asked as a question to the reader allows the poem to resonate with them. This piece flows smoothly with an even pace. The lines transition exquisitely from one to the other. So many of the lines reverberate in my mind and I definitely can relate to this piece. It is a six star piece because the poet gets the reader to feel emotion through the well chosen words that create the lines, and emotes feelings of their own through this poem. The experiences described in the lines are relatable to all individuals and create a clear sense of emotional imagery. The accompanying photo is perfectly suited to reflect the words and thoughts of this piece. Eloquently written to bring to the surface those emotions that often get shoved deep down inside a soul.

Wonderful questions about the survival of love, and in a larger sense, life.
We survive because we are made to be resiliant.
We live and love because we are human.
We hurt because we have a physical body.
Excellent.

A thought provoking testament on the varying attributes of the living experience. The expression: "My trust is the nightmare, that played us a-part," cuts to a depth of passion and love lost. Well done.

Till the last amen

All the things that make a relationship work or break apart seem to be contained in your verse. It could have been a beautiful and lasting love except trust and truth were not practiced by both.

Such a sad line and beautiful line to contemplate
Values of honor, scarred deep on my heart,
My trust is the nightmare, that played us a-part.

This is incredibly beautifully! A poem that really makes you stop and think and maybe reflect a little. Or a lot.

I love the line, "My trust is the nightmare, that played us a-part." I love it

Very nice job
