Micheala Ruth September Poet Free verse

Love Is a Dream

I know 
I am loved
In more ways
Than one.

However,
I cannot imagine
Being loved
How one should.

By a partner
Or significant other 
Who should love me
For all that I am.

Nobody will
Love me
In all
Of my unrelenting glory.

For a single moment,
I experienced it,
But not to 
The extent I deserved. 

I was never loved 
Effortlessly
And wholeheartedly
With ease.

I was loved
At a distance
With minimal effort
Put in place.

I watch those
Around me
Experience that
Novel love.

While I sit
And dream
Of that
And so much more.

I dream
Of being loved
Unconditionally, 
Irrevocably,
Wholeheartedly,
And unapologetically.
