Poem: Sacred Love

I am a writer. My passion is poetry. I feel words connect people together and help us to understand the feelings we share.

Poem Summary

Sacred Love is a poem about two people who come together sharing love and affection. It is like a heavenly gift as it blooms with the promise of words. They create a sacred relationship with love strong enough to last an eternity.

"Keith Urban - Only You Can Love Me This Way"

Sacred Love

It’s a heavenly gift

when two lonesome souls come together

sharing the abundance of emotional love and affection.

It blooms into a solid relationship

like a bud,

blooms into a beautiful flower.

Holding the fragility of one another’s heart

with the promise of mere words

as a layer of trust develops

growing stronger with each second.

Fermenting their joyous fruit

into a sacred wine

pouring enough drops

to last an eternity.

Love greatest gift is its ability to make everything it touches sacred.

— Rumi

"Florida Georgia Line - H.O.L.Y."

Muhammad,

Thank you.

A poem is an expression of feelings but it can touch upon anyone's feelings...not just your own.

Just out yourself inside the situation and figure out how someone might feel.

Take care & have a wonderful day.
