Love Told Me This

I have been writing poetry, fiction and short stories for many years and have completed a book of poems. I also enjoy comedy writing.

Love told me to never rush my heart, wait

Love told me patience will bring my soulmate

Love told me to admire and not lust

Love told me real love means compromise and trust

Love told me to give wholeheartedly and expect nothing in return

Love told me living life is a lesson, take notes at every turn

Love told me respect and honour is needed

Love told me that sometimes the stronger conceded

Love told me to be kind and lovable

Love told me to be a heart’s desire and pleasurable

Love was outspoken, but many times whispered quietly

But what love did not mention, was the magnitude of your beauty

Love never told me I was going to be blessed with an Angel

Or that our connection would be this sacred

Love to me things which were real

But love never said I would become head over heels

When I see you, all I see is passionate love

You, you are the purity of love.
