Great Love

Love is intense at sixteen
Love, unreciprocated, loss
Intense loss

Depths of longing
Heights of soaring
Floating, contentment

The eyes see, the heart wants
Hoping for intense glances
Burning the depths of eternity

Solar glow giving
Love's hot flame
Tingle down my spine

It was so long ago that I am not sure that I remember what love was like. LOL> Great job in this write. Is this just a suggestion of what we will get in the month of February. Keep the creative pen flowing. Mom
