HOPEFULLY, DISAPPOINTED LOVE

I (26) fell in love, hard and true, wanting to marry her(17) . She seemed to reciprocate my desires, and i was the happiest guy on earth. Only, after one year together, she went away with another boy(18) , I am not affluent, but God Willing, I will be someday. I wanted her to wait so that I could place the world at her feet, but she had other plans. I was unaware of her new found love, and i waited for one full year, hoping that she would be willing to accept me back into her life. Well, I called her on her birthday (July 18), but received no response. the next day, her mother came and told me to stay away as her daughter had chosen her mate. I wished that i could die, the pain was so great. But i just felt numb. It has been two years since that day.
Earlier i would just feel resentment and hatred for her and her mate, but now i have made my peace with God, and have forgiven them. They did what they had to do. I mean, come on, nobody wants to be with an impoverished guy. But my tomorrow could change. That notwithstanding, God gave me love and healed my heart. Now i have made God as my Beloved, as there are no betrayals from His side.

THIS POEM CAME TO ME WHEN I WAS WAITING FOR HER, HOPEFUL AND THEN THAT FATEFUL DAY, WHEN I WAS DISAPPOINTED, CRUSHED.
