Gone are the days of waiting for love
I used to wait faithfully patiently
For an “I love you” to be Echoed back
I will not live in the shadow of when
Or if
It may not be mine to find
But I will create the light of love
To share without restraint
Love does not have to be finite
“What if you never get that love back”
Screams in my mind
“What if you are never wanted”
And all I have to say to that thought is
The enjoyment of my life, the giving of love is not dependent on others.
If you want to enjoy flowers, plant them
