Hurt can make us lock our hearts from others which is sad and I could identify with your words, but my heart never remained locked for long. First stanza, I think you mean 'turned loose' ? Love Dolly x

Thank you for the kind review Dolly:)
Comment from Jesse James Doty
A well told sad tale about a friend of yours. I like the metaphors of the fish being thrown back into the water after being hurt and left to bleed. Your description of a happily-ever-after love story seemed universal for almost all folks. They hold onto dreams, that rarely come true, for most of us, and give up entirely, as a result of not getting their dreams fulfilled. I was glad to read that this is not you. Hope and dreams are what keep us living, and participating, in the world of relationships. Nobody said it was easy, to find, and keep, a relationship alive. I enjoyed reading your entertaining story, sad, though it was. It reminds me to keep on trying, and never give up hope.
Take care, Jesse

Comment from Irish Rain
Aha, she has to first love herself so much...that anyone who doesn't love her as much...is not even considered. When you get that down, it's in your vibration...the rejection, the sadness. And life will keep matching her with circumstances, to 'prove' how she feels. She needs to SOMEHOW....feel great first. Loved this, blessings...

Ah. That is great advice. I will have to tell her that.

Tell her to study 'Law of attraction' by Jerry and Esther Hicks...it's on the internet. I have found it to be 100% true....and it explains so much!
Comment from Gypsy Blue Rose
Hello, Teresa,
This is a sad poem and even more so because it is true about your friend and it happens a lot. I don't understand how people can be so cruel. I think it is a lovely free verse. Good job, honey.

Excellent Poem! The author's words are creative, sad and thought provoking.
Thank you for the author's notes. I liked the title of your poem. It was the right
word for this poem "Discarded".

Comment from Cycler
Nicely written! Sounds just like scenarios I've seen and how they've felt. We all want a try and don't know why it doesn't happen. It's difficult to stay confident ... I remember the phrase "there are other fish in the sea ..." never really liked that phrase probably because of what you just expressed.
Nice job with the topic!

Comment from kathleenspalding
Oh, bless her heart. Well, better the online thing stopped before guy got into her bank account! Tell her to be sure to drop someone cold if they ask for a loan. Dating sites are loaded with guys who live off their girlfriends'/victims' money. Your poem is excellent. I don't see anything that needs to be corrected.

Teresa,
This is so sad to read. Can't imagine having to LIVE it. Bless her poor soul.
The good news is that most of us eventually find someone special. I hope she'll keep trying.
Nice work. Good luck in the contest!

Those who throw us overboard back into the sea of life. may well be missing the best blessing. But, when we are thrown back into the sea we need to consider we may have been handed a great gift. Patricia
