Sonnet 10 'Love Cannot Live While Choked By Expectations' Revised 3 19

Love cannot live while choked by expectations! The Weeds of Wanting strangle it with Fear! 'WANT!' starts when we mistake Love for Sensations! And IGNORANCE, when feelings we hold dear… Am I to say then, friend, that I know better? Because I have known Love a while and seen The fruits of being Loved more than the letter? I speak none ill, for Love is sometimes green! I hope that I can heal my hurt and heart, And learn 'something' by sorting out my mind, That I can trace my pains back to their starts, And learn lessons from how my Love was kind… She never said a word that was ill-placed, ‘Twas always true, and equally well-spaced.
