Notes About The Poem

False Love

A seeming kindness and gentleness wooed me 
and like a wounded dove beneath your hand, I quivered.
To calm a flight filled heart was your decree
and yet conquest and not contact was delivered,
wanting, waiting, for your touch, I shivered.

So short but the message deep and long. Returned to read this yet again. If only I could write such power in such few words! I envy you that great poetic talent my friend. A7

This one is a true gem. False love I endured twice in my life and its pains ate me into my soul. This one is positive and inspiring! A7

I seem to have read the same theme from another write of yours, Deb- The Score. Though this is more subdued and the other one includes aspect that necessitate euphemism. Once again, I am awed by your poetry.
