Mature Love Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

Mature Love



Living into senior years with a sadness always at the edges
of it, thinking back, wondering how you ever made it in one
piece to where you are right here in this place.

Seeing an entire lifetime filled with family in and out of
grief, sadness, loneliness and emptiness, how these things
get hold of us is a mystery never to be solved.

Loving into the future with a mature love filling your
heart, keeping you warm on dark, cold nights and holding
your hand through daily trials and suffering of life.

Knowing the goodness, peace and kindness as it fills your
mind and heart, reminiscent of a baby being born and the
unending love you have for it's beauty.

A love in the end, holding you safely, helping you feel
alive, keeping you within the confines of your being, yet
being sent all over the universe in depths of happiness
for what you have found at long last.

One true mature love, no more childish whims or mistaken
traces of it's essence, it is a total emotion, a choice
selected by a heart that cannot contain itself without
the other.

A beautiful sentiment filling your senses with the utmost
sanity you can ever find in this life here on earth.
