Because I Love You ?

 

As I sit,
I struggle,
To express my love for you.

Putting Pen to paper,
Trying it for now.
Trying again later.

Clever words.
Some apt,
Some choice.

Subtle tender tones,
Melodic,
Some coy.

Elaborate a few.
But struggle in the main.
Give up in frustration.

At lasts a light.
I’ve come to realize,
I don’t love you.

Like a drug user or an alchoolic.It's hard to admit the facts.

Jim,
This is a great poem. So many times I've tried to write a poem for that one special person, only to find out as I'm writing there really was no love at all.. Nicely written..

I can well relate to this one! My husband told me just last night that he didn't think he loved me anymore. It kinda brought relief to hear his words, because I hate his very existence! Terrible of me, huh? Tricia
