Complex Hearts Poem Verses

In quiet moments, thoughts return,
To memories made, where love was earned,
A difficult love, a bond entwined,
A heart now gone, a love resigned.

I miss their strength, their stubborn will,
The moments shared, both bitter and thrilled,
Yet in my heart, a love still grows,
For even complex hearts, love bestows.

In whispered prayers, I'll find my peace,
A love unbroken, a bond that's ceaseless,
My dear one, forever near,
A complex heart, undying, clear.
