Unconventional Love

Listen to poem:

You say you love me and yet I feel you hardly know me I say I love you and yet I feel an aching emptiness within and fail to have a sense of ‘we’ It’s curious and odd to think we are in love when we have no clue where this can lead even stranger is how we are ok with that Somehow we’re defining and redefining love as we try to understand what’s become of us posted on May 26, 2023

It makes me think of two teenage lovers. They always say they are in love with each other when they are 17. What do they know? Such a road to travel ahead. Will they someday learn sincere romantic love? Will it last forever? I agree with Yan below, this was touching.

some regrets here, it raise an interesting debate, can we love without knowing someone ? thanks for the touching poem
