Love Lost
Those things in life that would destroy us
we must build up inner strength against
in order that they do not defeat us.
One must shut down one's emotional
channels of communication
when they are seeded with hardship and deception.
Open the doors to your heart
only for those who knock with desire to protect the key.
Never leave open the door to your heart
so those who love deception, trouble and misery
can slam it in your face!
This door is closed,
the lock is sealed,
the key is scattered within a pile
of a million keys.
Only the pure of heart shall find it.
I will never again let myself
and my love become lost.
P. J. Campise
