They say, share the love,
But what if I don’t know you that well yet?
How can I love you?
I want to get to know you.
I look at your words, and I think maybe
I can share my love
Some of you are so sweet
Like a ripe strawberry to be plucked
Some of you are savage
Waiting for the first sign of fear
Some of you are persistent
Fighting for a cause
Some of you are just you
Just because
If I give all my love away
Will you love me back?
Will I be discarded and forgotten
Like a single sock on a rack
Okay, I will love you.
I will hold you close.
Lay your head on my chest
We will exchange each other’s breaths
When you feel safe
In the knowledge
That I love you
Please love me too.
Chère F.,
I guess that you just cannot know
For me this is how it’s supposed to be
Your soft words really hit hard
They resonate deeply with me
I love it to bits!
Kind regards, Gus
Thank you, Gus, I appreciate your kind words.
If you can’t hate anyone then you almost certainly love everyone.
Do I love you from a distance? Of course I do.
It would get trickier if there wete no distance and lust and love melt into each other.
Great write Fia….
Give love away it’s no good keeping it to yourself.
Thank you, Peter. Yes let’s give love away.
Tickle me strawberry. It’s fantastic!

A single sock has never been sadder.
Maybe it’s under the bed?
I fully agree with this poem overall.

Thank you, Jim ;))

Omg, change purse?
she’s poor and has no change, but holds out hope nonetheless
