Happy Valentines Day

Beauty is in the innocence of youth. The older we get, the beauty fades away. Is it in the feast or the famine? What makes it this way? The burdens we bear, weigh heavily upon us Buried beneath the bullshit and lies Innocent once, was I, were you Youth stolen, the proof, written in lines Don't believe? Just look in the mirror. Read them upon your face. Can't you see? Innocent once, was you, like me. Beauty is in the deeds we do. Actions speak louder than words. Sincerity asks for nothing in return Affecting love to be truly blind. Ignorance is bliss Wisdom, the burden Knowledge, the truth Love, our hope But if love is truly blind Does it not make sense That we may never find True Love, in youth or in old age? Yet we all still hope Yet we all still seek That someone may see The beauty In you, like me And that To me Is Truly Beautiful... P.S. Though I may never find you, Though you may never know me, Know that I think of you always. Happy Valentines Day ...

Vidal, Welcome to Poetry soup, I hope you enjoy the community. Here, you will find friendly poets who enjoy supporting one another. I myself, enjoy reading and commenting those who want to be read. The only time I give constructive criticism is when a poet desires it. However, if for some reason the poem is not my field I will guide you to someone who is more qualified than I. Stop by and read one of my poems if you like. My poems are not perfect, but I have a feeling you might like one. I encourage you to check out the contest page and read to receive comments. Tell me a little about your poetic skills if you like. It will be my pleasure to follow and read every poem you post from here on :) We are Lucky To Have you. Your New Poet Friend @-> LINDA <-@
