Love Poem #137 (2009)

i’ve written about love in the past
but now I know how it feels at last
how it feels to have the love of another
not just the love of a brother
or a sister
or of a mother.
it’s finally my time for love
for affection
for those long embraces
that you just don’t want to end
ever.
i want to stay in his arms forever
endure whatever
may come our way
i’ll hold on tight and won’t let go
and together we will grow
they say you reap what you sow
everything has finally paid off
now I’m in the arms of another
and I know exactly how he feels
he loves me
i love him
that’s all that matters now…
