~for all the broken hearted women I read here.

Do not put your faith in men.

Men are simple:
they want to eat and ****;
Women more subtle:
they want to feel and touch.

The boy you are lamenting now
will not remember you in 40 years,
nor you him. Not that
it doesn't hurt. It does.

But love is brief and life is long.

Consider the world instead,
how bright and shiny
it really is
sometimes.

Give your hearts to that.
Marry the beauty of what is.
You will have
a long and marvelous
relationship.

~ mce
Sorry to get personal, but there is so much sadness and despair here. Think about it: if it was really love, can it really be lost?
