Life Shall Not Owe This Love

Will love Stand by your side Protect you From the eye of This storm What are we Willing to bargain for This love is a game Does love wait at your door This unwritten contract Laughs at the court Life shall not owe This love a guarantee Why do we pretend to be satisfied

I love the reference to the "unwritten contract" that "Laughs at the court." I have always believed true love does not need papers to prove its worth! I found your poem truly fascinating and filled with great insight! Love, Carolyn

Very intriguing, Much to think about here, Love is awesome and wonderful but it is also painful and scary..There are never any guarantees but for love I think it is worth all the risks..Nicely done..God Bless You*Tyesha
