Loving
I often ask myself “Can I wholly love?” or am I in love with the thought of loving and being loved?
Cos I’d love to love, to love so deep. To love someone so much that they’re yours to keep.
I’d love them to love me, a love so safe. A loving love is a love I crave.
The love of the ins and outs of my lover – to love the mystery of what’s yet to discover.
Love is scary. Love can hurt. Love can vary. Love can revert.
But your love must be close to complete you see. So, I don’t know if love is yet for me…
Love struggles to cling my parts together.
So, I’m afraid that if I love again, I might be broken forever.

Author's Note
This is the first poem that I've publicly shown and I had such a great reception from friends that I felt that I can share it here. This was just intended to be a ponder on what love is and ended up being one of my most cherished poems
