Love...?
Beatriz Ayala 1995 (United States)
Sweep me off my feet and show me the stars.
To do, to not to do
It not sweetness, I hope for but strength.
Or am I alone?
It’s a strange time to fall in love.
Yet you help yourself.
We blame society and never take responsibility.
Its not love thyself, its love thy other
For without love, we move in a blanket of nothingness
Hoping and praying
But when we love…don’t we hold back
At least I do…
Scared and excited
Love me whole,
while I love you half
About this poem
How love in todays society.
