To***

To a loved one...

 

How I was careful not to wend your way

And fall mere victim to your power’s thrust,

But needless, saying so, I must now say

With shame, “how can I love you if I trust

You not?” I’ll live forever in my grief

And never climb from out my deep despair

Just knowing with a thought I can’t conceive:

The fact that you show not a joy or care

In loving me, embracing love’s fine art

And never lying; putting to the test

Your strong forbearance still, I’ll never part

From you, but lock your heart within my breast.

    Should I fall prey to love’s immortal rue?

    Nay, I’ll forgive you as true lovers do.

Loving one, and I mean truly so, is most definitely like this; you love them and you rue the say you met, Superb write.
