What Brings Joy In Love Poem by RoseAnn V. Shawiak

What brings joy to us when we're in love, is it the feelings
of being worthwhile to another person or the joy of sharing
our hearts when they're hidden in an unconditional love.

Beauty, feelings that the world is on our side at last, minds
rejoicing, happy, the world is colorfully touching our hearts,
giving us feelings of peace and serenity while in love.

A love that is only temporarily ours because of death always
looming before us, silently threatening us with the loss of
ones we truly love.

How cruelly love ends in the story of our lives and love, is
it better to have never loved so the experience of losing it
doesn't affect or hurt us?

Unfortunately when we come into this temporary life, love is
the first feeling we have from our parents, as they care for
us unselfishly.

So it seems we're all doomed from the very beginnings of
just living our lives after all and there's nothing we can
do about any of it.
