ALL I COULD GIVE

ALL I COULD GIVE

She brought all to the table; I came empty
At the other end boiled emotions commitment-filled
My heart; it spent as much as a penny
Passion in my bosom fell but I won’t flinch
Every day, as her soft gaze met my unyielding eyes,
Nothing more than pity I could feel for her
Wholeheartedness, welcomed with sighs                                                        
Could I give that which was not there?
When love knocks at the wrong door
And denied the warmth of a home
And a heart fails to receive the benevolence that pours
It is as draining as a viable seed not yielding to the sow
I couldn’t drown even at the heel with love that deep
My heart continuously seeped as it received

Deep write Anthony. Resonated.
"When love knocks at the wrong door
And denied the warmth of a home
And a heart fails to receive the benevolence that pours
It is as draining as a viable seed not yielding to the sow."
