Love Poem: Trading Love Stories

Trading Love Stories

The glory of an individual heart 
Understands the joy and the pain!
Through a broken heart we gain in wisdom
Through a joyful heart, 
We understand the individual pain

We trading love stories
As poets who would figure
All we need at times is a broken relationship
That transforms the heart!
Our pencil becoming a trigger displaying
The shadow of a relationship!
Like a ship some of our relationships will sink
In the blink of an eye things can change—
Strange who would figure that all we need at times is a broken
Relationship in order to write some of the most beautiful poetry

Looking back in history, we see the poets trading love stories
Therefore, as poets we are no different
We trading love stories
Our emotions are on the rise reaching a level that 
Will inspire us to write several poems displaying 
The complexity of a love story filled with happiness and sadness
