Before We Meet

My love you are the sun
I am the rain
I storm inside and you
Shine in me to tame

Your kiss is missed
Before it is a thing
I know your soul is 
Part of me before a name

I am not sure we have met
My heart is pure though I digress 
If we meet I will confess
I’ve waited for you passed test

As I have been inpatient still
Time has passed and we will 
Be so blessed so in thrill
For two to be of one and live

I have not met you I believe
For if I had we would achieve
A simple level of desire and dream
I would never go you never leave

Love is not a fairytale 
Unless you have nothing to compare
I have loved and it was not returned in kind
So I will say I am waiting for you valentine.

Such a beautiful, romantic poem Karen and so well expressed. I love the hopeful, wistful anticipation threading through the lines and many will relate to this. The last stanza is poignant and touching knowing that,’ love is not a fairytale’ and yet, we still hope that dreams will and do come true … Quite reflective reading this. Thank you for sharing Karen. Blessings and smiles to you xx :):)

Positively, true! A highly admired and coveted expression of affection is "You never leave; I would never depart." The suspense in your title is just perfect.

Indeed! The best most hoped for love is this, 'I would never go - you never leave'. I love your title, with all the anticipation it holds. Jeanette :)
