THE TRUTH OF LOVE

The Truth Of Love


Love means giving someone freedom
While nurturing your bond
And although it is magical
It’s not made with a wand

It isn’t built on fairy dust
Or sealed with just a kiss
It takes deep roots and daily care
To grow a love like this

It’s not control or ownership
It’s not a silent war
Real love will never cage your wings
It will only help you soar

It holds you close, yet lets you breathe
It lifts, but doesn’t bind
It sees your flaws and loves you still
With honesty that’s kind

It won’t be perfect every day
And sometimes it feels tough
But even through the hard and raw
You’ll know that it’s enough

So if you find a heart like this
That helps you rise above
Then hold it close, and honor it
You’ve found the truth of love

THE PATH TO MY HEART

The Path To My Heart I gave you a map. It led straight to my heart. But you took the paper, And ripped it apart. Did I walk away? No, I lived in the lie. I gave you more chances. I thought you would try. But I guess that my map, Just leads to heartbreak. A pain so damn deep, A chasm of ache. So I’ve made a new map. One just for me. No twists to avoid. It will make me happy. I’ll follow this path. And I’ll take every turn. Till the pain is all gone. And I don’t feel the burn. And I'll reclaim my power. I'll reclaim my light. And I'll finally remember, That I'm worth the fight. Original Poetry Written By Eryn Dunbar Copyright (c) 7.9.2025

FOOL'S GOLD

  FOOL'S GOLD Never again You won’t see my face The way you treat others Is such a disgrace Your essence is toxic Your lips drip with lies You’re selfish and hateful Beneath your disguise You’re like a fungus A spore or black mold You think you’re a gem But you’re just fool’s gold You’re made up of layers But even snakes shed their skin You’re not only noxious You’re the eighth deadly sin It took at most months And not several years To see how you prey Upon everyone’s fears You find out their secrets Then laugh as you share Breaking their hearts They just laid out bare But here’s a little something  I guess you didn’t know Those others you talk to See how you dim their glow They like themselves more Than they’ll ever like you They’ll have long walked away Before you’ll have your first clue So go wear your charm And spin your tall tales The ship that I’m on Has long set its sails Now I’ve risen up And I’ve slammed the door I won't allow you to imprint On my life  ANYMORE O...
