Debbie Middaugh Poet Rhyme

LOVE

   I've learned what it 
doesn't look like.
   I've learned it can
 cut you like a knife. 

   I've learned how it should
Not feel.
   I've learned how it was
Not real.

   I've learned it is not
About gestures and gifts.
   I've learned it's not about
A nice body and ****.

   I've learned it cannot
Be forced.
   I've learned that it
Can distort.

   I've learned that it 
Cannot be fake.
   I've learned it can
Quickly,
 turn to hate.
