True Love

.           True love 

I love the way you make me love you
Love the way you step my heart on the ground.
When you walk into the room
I love the way you do not even look at me.
You take my breath away
With all the words you say,
I fell in love with you more 
The day you walked out the door.
I love how strong you became
I love the way you always hang up the phone. 
I can't get enough of you 
When you want me out of your face.
True love came to me all of a sudden 
When you dumped me in our special place.

I take my self back into your arms,
only when I am asleep.
I know I brought your heart a little harm.
Now the boat has turned making my love weep.
You do not bother with my charm
All you do is give me the cold shoulder.
In my book of love, you will get over it soon
In the mean time you are my true love
No matter if I have to do it all by myself.
Until than I will not give you the pleasure
Of forgetting  what you gave up.
Stop teaching me the lesson of pay back
Stop playing hard to get,
My one and only TRUE LOVE
 
.          SKAT

I agree w/Shilpa, a great romantic paradox. Very well written poem. Skat. Your ability to examine true motives in matters of the heart is a rare talent. You got it, sister. Love your work. Keep expressing yourself w/verve and nerve. Love you always.

I always find it interesting how some women gravitate to guys that treat them so badly! The ones that don't treat them badly can't seem to hold their interest. Great poem well expressed!

I love it! I love the way you say the things we normally say when we are in love, and I love the way it ends - with your lover being distant from you but you loving him anyway.

Amazing, It sparkles with emotion in every verse. As if there were a life time of feelings concealed within it. Truly beautiful.

True love isn't talking because true love is far more than words , True love isn't listening because true love cannot be heard. True love is the dealing when the cards of life are dealt. I truly hope you have been dealt a winning hand.
