When it came to feeling loved I didn’t always have my lid screwed on right Sometimes too loose Sometimes too tight No matter what I did it didn’t feel right Hindsight is twenty-twenty I know now it wasn’t all me Part of the problem was being loved inadequately Still that having been said the love I did have could not sustain me It did not contain me within warm arms of certainty until you You love me in ways I can’t ignore Every day you place your heart at my door so I can see it belongs to me Every night you hold me You enfold me Your need to be close is as strong as mine Your fear this will all disappear grips me too There is comfort seeing it in you I know you won’t Betray or deceive and make me leave I know your love is real because Loved is how you make me feel LGR©5/1/14 |

What a wonderful poem of love you have shared with us today, Lori. It just doesn't get any better than this. ~*~ Why do we drive on a parkway and park on a driveway? ~*~ |

grand-fine mix of 'slice-of-life' reality and Romanticism indeed! It's lovely to read such 'pennings' in writing styles that I am entirely incapable of ... |
