Depends on the poem, they usually range anywhere from 15-45 minutes. I’ve always loved poems, and I was writing love poems even before I was ever in love. Kind of odd, but true. Although, my poetry has been much better since I met Candy- inspiration can mean a lot.
Do you dare me to share my love
Do you want me to write of love?
The thing that holds me to the fire
That is the power of your love
That which is my true desire
That is my need for love
The thing which eats at my heart
That is the cost of love
That which breaks me when we’re apart
That is the breadth of love
The thing which makes a grown man cry
That is the sorrow of love
That which makes me continue to try
That is the hope of love
The thing which makes our hearts soar
That is the joy of love
That which we are living for
That is the purpose of love
The thing which makes us reckless
That is the foolishness of love
That which provides long-lasting contentedness
That is the wisdom of love
I would share all of our love
Alas, no void could contain our love
...
Candy, I hope you receive joy
From this belated Valentine’s day
And I hope you know I send my love
In my own unique way
For though you live away, my darling
Though we may be physically apart
The joy and tenderness you’ve lent me
Constantly lives in my heart
