Lock and Key

As midnight sun falls,
I awake from deep slumber
*
My dreams and thoughts of you,
Fall in piece that will shatter into nothingness
*
The sun that my world is lit by,
Is now swirled into eternal darkness
*
Because of you,
And the hurt you cause
I am able to open my eyes and see the real world
*
Love into hatred
Friends into enemies
*
My life had depend on a guide,
 But know you’ve gone
*
We have separated…
For happiness, you first have to cause pain…
*
To see your heart,
You must seek who you really are...
*
Do you love me?
Is this love?
Am I being deceived?
You must answer questions till you are where you want to be
*
But when one is answered,
There is always two more that follow them
*
From three to thousands,
Will I ever find the true meaning of love?
*
My hope
My heart
My everything
*
It must’ve belong to someone or,
Somewhere before you
*
I must wait and be patient for my love,
Because love comes in two…
*
You have to find the key to the lock…
To my heart…

This is a wonderful exposition on love. I like the flow of the words and the message. The title certainly flows with the subject and is consistent. The ending is just wonderful. Great job! ~Joseph

Your poem portrays, the difficulty that love owns. Respectful give and take make love last after passion dwindles. Long ago I heard that each person must give 95%. 95x2=190. That's more than the whole. It takes more for two to love as one. I am sorry for your sadness. I hope that you and the one you love will once again find joy. May God guide and bless you always. Keep writing. Your poem drew me into the midst of it. Excellent. And welcome to Poetry Soup. Love, Dane
