Couples embracing here
Couples nuzzling there
They glance at me and wonder
Why I do not choose a partner.
I was taught that romance was
a trap to be avoided.
Love was merely a luxury
and I would always be too
poverty-stricken to afford it.
So I learned to live within my means
Sighing over lustful dreams
and wishing on stars from afar.
Over time, I grew wiser
but hoarded love like a miser
Never giving for fear of being robbed.
Very well written! Although
Very well written!
Although it's sad, it will be all so much more beautiful
when you do experience love. It will be so rich. I
looked forward to that day for you.
This is really sad and I hope
This is really sad and I hope for your sake that it isnt true! They say that there is someone for everone out there and I hope that you find yours. Great poem... it was written well. I read a few of your others and i must say you have an odd style. Very interesting
No One
could write so well of love and never have given it openly or pursued and captured it - from time to time if not lastingly. Well composed - touching something vital with incredible intuition and clarity. ~Stella~
