~ Love in Doubt ~

Over the years I have learnt

To be soft and tender in 

my speech If I have to reach

The heart and soul 

of someone I love;

Over the days I have tried

To be patient and brave

To bear harsh realities and save 

my strength to wait at length

To let silent tears soothe my fears

Of The Grave and Lonely years,

Over the moments I have 

stepped back, to give space

To close my eyes and feel the 

serene face and tender touch 

of the Spirit I so dearly love.

Over my life I have drifted, 

along, with the flow

I came to know

I have to go and be slow

To move step by step

shed tears drop by drop,

Over my heart I found,

 nothing was my own

It All had to be gifted,

to known and unknown

Over my Heart I saw, 

as inside I bled

Outside All was black 

as the invisible was red,

love's return, hard to find,

Values virtues vanished, 

none- was really  kind

the more you cared 

the more you lost

No one would hear 

til it was a shout-

And with all your sincere Love

Your love was always in doubt.
