Before You Poem by Gert Strydom

Before You



Before you I was drifting
like a piece of driftwood on the sea
and thought that I knew integrity,
passion, romance and dedication
and in every loving touch
thought that I was connecting
with that which gives life meaning,

but you are much more than that to me
a place to shelter against storms,
a place filled with tranquillity
and in a way far more pretty
than any girl who kept me company.
