I Knew Love Poem by SHARON YAKOWA

I Knew Love

Rating: 4.5


Love came to me some years ago
It wasn't sad, it wasn't lonely
I guess it was my ego,
It made me to big to notice.

I knew love
Not when we were together
Not when love had me spinning in circle
And acting like I was in a circus.

All along it was with me
Side by side, sparking like the stars
Oh yes it was jealous, oh yes it was beautiful and oh yes it was everything they said it would be like.

I was with love yet I was searching for it, it was beside me, holding my hearts with its bare hands
Yet I betrayed it,
I cursed it
I abused it and here I am now praying for it.

I knew love but then I didn't know what love was about.

A nice poem, well articulated and written with insight. Happiness is in appreciating and wanting what you've got. Love is a spiritual experience, if it's not nurtured carefully, it goes away without looking back. I can relate very well with your conviction. Thanks for sharing. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
