An allowance of joy and colours.

An allowance of joy and colours.

If you end this love’s affair,
then I will not die, neither will the sky fall,
nor will this world collide with the Sun.

But the joy within my heart will expire,
and the colour’s dye which saturates all nature,
will be washed to a pale disillusion,
by the amount of tears which flow.

Though you will never see this.
You will only see a stubborn pride,
the stiff back of an imposter as I walk away.

You will not know that cruel stab, the pain,
for this hurt will be my comfort’s source;
that it keeps me alive to the fact I have loved you,
and had your love’s bright return.

I might never beg you; that pride is a man’s affair,
and I blame that on the nature of birth’s decree.
Yet my eyes would beg,
though I’d hide them within the mist of a smile.
And that trembled lip’s give,
would be falsified by an embarrassed cough.

If you leave me, you would never know the hurt,
neither you nor those in my know,
would have knowledge of this pain's stab, this cut,
which would sever that especial part of me,
which allows joy of life, all happy hours,
and allows me to see colours.

If you left me then I would be blind,
to all of life's comfort and a heart's display, the belief,
that a Sun will ever shine and love is all compact.

The pangs of rejection truly can initially cause great emotional & physical damage.

I think it depends on the nature of the person as to how rejection is dealt with. In my younger day, I expected it and so rejected before I was the rejected. Some crumble, some have pride to help them. It de3pends on the needs and the strength of will. I write of love and emotional strength but I never will understand it at all.
