My Gift to You

"The events that inspired these verses are collections of
memories and fragments that have merged to form poems.
The stories of loving experiences between players, that
looking for love or company ended up with a wounded
heart.
These stanzas represent detailed images of the experiences
leading to disenchantments and frustrations that loving
and losing produces; without forgetting the sublime
rapture and ecstasy that loving also inspires.
These verses touch the essence of the heart and soul,
appealing to that collective need we call love; that human
sentiment so powerful, that it can make us touch heaven
or sink us to darkest depths of hell."
