Love For a Lifetime

There are no guarantees to love, because if there were, you wouldn't be so careful not to break it.

Love for a lifetime

Is all we really need

But where do we begin?

And is it guaranteed?

 

I guess you begin by looking

Deep inside your own heart

To see if you love your life�"

That’s the best place to start;

 

There’s no way

You’re not worth loving�"

God made sure of that

For all�"

Love creates

Man hesitates

We stumble, trip, and fall...

 

But you get up�"

Don’t fall again�"

At least not so much

Till you fall

One last time�"

Tripped up

By a touch...

 

A touch

Of another’s heart

With fingertip control...

Your lives entwine

Somehow, combine�"

You’re no longer half

But Whole.

(A touch Of another’s heart With fingertip control...Your lives entwine Somehow, combine" You’re no longer half But Whole.) This final stanza is the perfect closure for a very well written, romantic poem! Bravo Rawland. ~Miss Sharon
