Leap of Faith
To question love?
Does love reside, within a sonnet,
Or does it lie, in contrived encounter,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
A leap of faith, in hope to be caught,
To fill the void, where love be sought,
To the question, which none can compare,Β
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
A warm embrace, a story to share,
Love to make, someone to care,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
Fate unquestioned, when sharing a vow,
To love each other, forever & now,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
Years pass, paths divert,
Bed turns cold, motions are carried,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
Fate lies questioned, the sonnet forgotten,
The search continues, for the love once certain,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
The vows now broken, by order bestowed,
Steps unfamiliar, the road now old,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?
Does love reside, within a sonnet,
Or does it lie, in contrived encounter,
To the question, which none can compare,
Is there only one person, meant for you out there?

beautiful verse, exceptionally written
It's comments like this that keep me writing...
Thankyou β€
Itβs so easy to leave nice comments when I read such a talented writer.

I used to think that there was the ONE. That special person so right for you that Happy Ever After sings its triumphant song up the wedding aisle. But alas, happy ever after does not exist. Not in the real world. Not in the stark grey world where loyalty moves over to make room for the view of greener pastures. Lies and infidelity become all to commonΒ bedfellows. And hearts break in the wake of such disaster. There is not one special person for anyone, this I believe with all my heart. Like the song says, there is just the person you haven't found yet.
Great write, Graham x
Thankyou,Β
You hit the nail on the head what my poem was attempting to say.Β
I tried to capture what is entrusted to fate as apposed to a person's desperation to find love... Does that make sense?
I like to question most things haha
Thanks again β€
Β
It does make sense ?x
Always a worry, I know what my poems mean ??
The good thing aboutΒ poetry is that it is pretty subjective. It's great when the poet's intent is grasped by the reader but many readers take different things away from what they have just read. Your work is well written so I wouldn't worry too much ? x
I try to write my poetry in layers like my songs...Β
Very good -
Is there anyone to compare,
yes, I found her over there.

This is a wonderful piece, Graham. I love itβs heart & essence. When I reflect on my past relationships, some were the one, at that very time, but as time went on the relationships floundered. Alas, Iβm still to meet my unique one, my soulmate. The journey continues! ?Β
I hope your journey is a beautiful one
Thankyou for the lovely commentsΒ
