THE RISK OF LOVE
by Richard Maxfield
4-2-99

I know I want it
But I am not real sure
If love again
Can be the cure

Hurt so bad
In the past
By a love
That did not last

I know for sure
That I must
Learn to love
Learn to trust

Give my heart
Away again
To a lover
A friend

Take that risk
With my heart
Take the risk
That she too will part

Don’t look back
Take the leap
The risk of love
Is never cheap

But to have someone
In my life
Take the chance
For a wife

To share my dreams
My days
To be in love
So many ways

Hold her hand
Take a walk
Hours spent
In loving talk

Rub her back
Kiss her toes
For no reason
Send a rose

Fulfill
All her needs
Brighten each day
With good deeds

Draw her close
Whisper in her ear
Make my love known
Make it clear

Warmth
Of a tight embrace
Tenderly kiss
Her beautiful face

Holding each other
Through the night
Making love
Will fell so right

I will take the chance
With my life
Find the one
To be my wife

The risk of love
Is never cheap
I know for sure
I’ll take the leap

The way to love anything is to realize it might be lost. author unknown

Thank you all for the wonderful comments. I wrote this poem a short time back. Since I wrote it I know love is the cure. All tough
I'm fine alone I want as we all do to love some one and them return my love.
Love and light,
Richard
