Notes About The Poem

Love Without Hope

Love is supposed to be patient and kind.
But sometimes it’s of another mind, and blind.
It should always protect, trust, and offer hope.
But when it doesn’t, it’s a slippery slope.

Concise and too the point ... there is nothing to be gained when love is deprived of all her greatest qualities. Well expressed.
