An insightful piece of poetry, well articulated and nicely penned in good diction with conviction. Thanks for sharing.

Nobody can go beyond his and her innate nature. We can never conclude that one doesn't want to love and to be loved. It is only that people won't love you and open their heart the way you expect. Our expectation in this regard is the real culprit. Who doesn't want to love and be loved in this world? Only a piece of rock might not be wanting.
Thank you. The way this site is formatted it gives the casual observer the idea that this poem is written by Lilly West. Perhaps the instead of by they could add submitted or posted.
