Does Love Have Limit? Poem by Gbolagade Taiwo

Does Love Have Limit?



I go to the tree
To tell me about love
I asked him if love has limit
He told me to sit
Sit under his wings
under his wings he called for Mr breeze
Mr breeze breezed sofly on me
I feel relaxed and refreshed
Under the wings of the tree
He covered me from the wrath of Mr sun
I never felt any effect of it under the tree
When the tree sees the rain
Gathering all his tears together
Mr tree tells me
Oh my lady! How I wish to take care of you
How I wish to protect you from anything
How I wish I could show you some love
But as you can see, I only have my wings spread out
There are still some spaces in my wings
Water can pass through these spaces and get you drenched
Please my lady, I want you to go home now
Because I cannot guard you from this rain
I felt disappointed in him
I thought I've found a place of love
I thought I've seen all the care I want
But the tree cannot give me all I want
I took my journey to the ocean
Where I thought there would be much of love
When I got there, it only quench my thirst
That is the only thing the ocean could do
After all my search for love
I found out that love has it's stop
I know all I need is endure
And contentment with commitment
I can only enjoy my love if I endure the short comings of it.
