It Had To Be Love Poem by Gugu BlaqRoze Thokoza

I knew it was love…
It just had to be,
Coz I couldn’t picture my life,
If you weren’t in it with me,
I knew I was inlove…
When I looked in your eyes,
And you held me in your arms,
When the only thing that mattered,
Was you and I together,
I knew it was real,
Coz of how you made me feel,
With you I could see my future,
Already carved in stone,
With a carving that says forever,
I knew it was love…
When you held me and said nothing,
yet the chemistry said something,
When the look in your eyes,
Said a million things,
Going to bed with your scent on my clothes,
When you told me you loved me…
I knew it had to be true,
After all hearts do not lie,
It just had to be,
When you caressed my body,
Drove me crazy,
Called me your lady,
And did things words cannot describe,
No day felt complete,
Without the sound,
Of your divine voice,
It felt incomplete,
Without your presence in it,
It had to be love…
A day without you,
And my would stop,
Coz you the one,
Who kept it turning,
With you and I together,
It was more than just a feeling,
Now I’m left wondering,
What went wrong…
