Before I Met You Poem by John Salome

Before I met you,
I thought I was happy,
And I was,
But that was before I felt
What love really does.
Before I met you,
I knew a lot of things,
Good things,
But that was before I knew what
Deep satisfaction love brings.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew myself,
And I did,
But you found the good things,
My mind once got rid.
Before I met you,
I thought I knew love what love was all about,
But I didn’t,
Until I met you.
