Ocean of Thoughts

When my muse
Is still unsure of me
Love learns to wait

When my muse
Is in need of understanding
Love learns to give service

When my muse
Decides to love me back
Love learns to meet halfway

But if my muse
Decides to be with another
Love learns to accept defeat

But if my muse
Decides to reject me wholly
Love learns to say goodbye

But if my muse
Is seen happy without me
Love learns to let go

But love does not disappear
Cannot be purged with catharsis
Instead love learns to grow
With virtue, hurt, and patience

There’s no love lost
For if one loves purely
Love comes with lessons learned
And with love, I shall carry on
