Until I loved you
I had never known the depth of love
For love has touched me deeply in places that
I never knew were there
Nor would they ever have revealed themselves
If not to lay naked in the sun and in the fragrance of the April air

Until I loved you
I had never known of bliss
For love had never wrenched such tears of joy
From out my most intimate well
Then from the selfsame pool unleash a thousand more
The bitter kind that from the deepest pits of sorrow swell

Since I have loved you
I will never love again
Nor live another moment in passion’s
Most exquisite form
For sentiment so pure cannot repeat itself
Nor by force nor by design be so innocently born

Very beautiful, dear Elizabeth.

Your thoughts around this unique love reflect its depth.

We tend to attribute exclusivity to our feelings of love and you express this intensely.

Love,
Margherita

This was very beautiful, my first poem of the day, and what a poem to wake up too.

Beautiful write my friend, though I truly believe love like that is never supplanted, and maybe never equaled because, like snowflakes, every 'love' is a little different, but, renewable.

enjoyed...

True love is almost indescribable, but you have described it anyway.

Lady Santos,

It is so good to watch you wend your words
again, for all to share.

This aches, but is lovely in its pain.
