Notes About The Poem

Submitted in "Language of Love Poetry Contest - sponsored by  Ink Empress. Poem written 05/27/26 N/A

Language of Love

I have forgotten the Language of love,
I have sought for guidance from above,
Professed my love now without rewards,
My heart is crossed by swords.

No one helps or bares witness
Not a promise of forgiveness,
Time passes by seasons,
I flirt with my demons.

Ghairo Daniels May 27, 2026 at 6:21 AM Good capture, Alison ~ of one underbelly of Love that many pass through. I enjoyed the end rhymes & concise format. Have you considered adding a chorus ? I felt it needed one as I read it. Sending blessings. Have a good day. Alison A Smith May 27, 2026 at 6:23 AM Thank you for your kind words. I have a friend who is putting my poetry to music. I will ask him.
