Love can even hurt
From afar,
Tell me,
Is it worth
Having this choking
Feeling,
That makes you feel
So lost,
So scared
You don't even know
Or care,
Who you really are.
At the same time,
Love can feel
Like a new born star
That inwardly, sears you
Lighting a fire
That can't be put out
Giving pleasure and pain,
Inundating, like torrential
Rain,
And as if, all that
Were not enough
Separation, comes in
Driving you insane
And no matter how hard
You try,
You can't escape
Or do without.
Sometimes,
Love really hurts!
Of that there is no doubt.
I am not sure it is Love that hurts. I think it is more ones perspective of love that can hurt or bring joy. A very heartfelt poem Sandra.
For me, it is that broken love you are feeling that hurts and it's a very personal thing, Each person may hurt in a different way, with different intensity, some can take it, others can go as far as suicide. Thank you for reading and for you pleasant comment.

Yes, Dear Dillip, what you said is exactly the essence of the work, you hit the poem on the head, as usual, You also had very kind words for my poem " A Different Kind of Passion" For which I thank you infinitely. I follow no special formula for my love poems, They are just felt very deeply and written, no particular plan.I appreciate all your comments, immensely and am very sincerely grateful. Best regards, Sandra
