A Shadow’s Valentine


I remember a before conversation
even remember the first time I
felt my breath taken away by you
how could I have known that
moments could have changed
my life forever
time has known us well before
we came to the place we are now
and I just wonder could I ever
love you more

"no darkness has ever been deep enough to extinguish my personal knowledge of love"  Anne Rice

I am finding it hard to write down what I am thinking, so I will just say, this is a great poem and I love the structure of it.

Beautiful write, my friend, and very fitting for the day. Soft, longing and loving.

Not sure "loving you more" is as important as loving you constantly, through all the tribulations, though I do agree with what you say whole heartedly
