Poem Commentary

Everything doesn't always go as planned, but sometimes the best things in life are unexpected.

Like Me


My heart understands your troublesome plight
Wondering should you even try to fight
I have lived this struggle to make things right

You fear the future as it seems so unclear
Your faith starts to disappear 
Lost in lust, thought it was love as it felt sincere
Caught up in the moment, unaware the outcome
Could be so severe
 
Like Me, you too have been given LIFE'S souvenir
Now wondering if "love" was part of the big picture
What kind of life will you share
Questioning yourself year after year

One thing is very clear, the love you have for a child is forever
This love will give you strength to persevere
Your doubts will disappear and it all becomes crystal clear

Like me, together or alone you have enough love
To give to your little one
An unexpected gift, precious and dear

If you ever need help or advice I will always 
Be right here

This has a message to be shared. Lustful Love, or Love Filled Lust are tricky maps to navigate. One step at a time, one day at a time and we may just make it out of this unknown jungle alive. Thanks for sharing, I really look forward to reading more of your writings.

I hope others see it this way, I wrote for my children. Thanks

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
