Canst Thou Love Again

Monica Harley

Canst thou love again
How can thee love again after
all the heartache and pain one
has caused to thee
Oh, if I could only take away the
pain with one sweet gentle kiss.
Would thou be satisfied with that?
But how much satisfaction can one gain
from a kiss meaning to take away the pain
My heart yearns for a love I had once before
One that was as sweet as yours
For I have wronged thee once before
and maybe more but
Canst thee find it in thou heart to forgive
For without thy forgiveness I can't bear to live
All I ask from thee is "Canst thou love me again?"
For that will be when my true happiness can begin.

Monica Harley

I, Monica Harley, was born in Fort Campbell, Kentucky on April 6, 1981. However, I am currently living in Knoxville, Tennessee. I started writing poetry in fall of 2001 when I realized that I was half way through with college at 20 years old. My first poem, "Canst Thou Love Again," was published in Las Vegas, Nevada and I became a member of the International Society of Poets. On April 6, 2012 I got accepted to the Great Poets Across America in Washington, DC. All of the poems I write are about my past love.I attended Maryville College in Maryville, Tennessee. In 2007, I received a Bachelor of Arts in Business and Organization Management. Currently, I am searching for a Business career. After my Bachelors, I had a couple of dead end customer service jobs. more…
