Affections

You affect my heart so deeply Oh, what an effect you have on me Today, you make me glad Yesterday, you made me sad Tomorrow, what effect will you have on me? My heart is longing for painless affection

I can relate to this one well, Karen. Yes, some of us have hearts that are really open to the influence of a loved one. Great write...painless affection...that last line is gold.

This could be any close relationship where we dare to be vulnerable! Thank you for reading my poem, too.
