My Love Poem by Josephine Dunn

My Love is a one-way street
But I am on collision course
With Disaster.
My Love is out of control
Beyond my understanding
Faster than light
It streams away from me
A universe of joy
Seeking a recipient.
My love is like thin ice
Each step tentative
Lest I should crack and break
Then drown in the icy waters
Of Despair.
My love is a soft blanket
Surrounding me with comfort
In my darkest hour.
It keeps away the night wolves
That howl
And gives me hope.
