I Do Not Know The Start. I Do Not Know How Far It Stretches… Poem by Kefentse Sathekge

(to the one I truly love & I grow to love daily)

That is how I feel about you.
You cannot question my love.
If you do…
I do not know the start.
I do not know how far it stretches…
So please…
Just know that I love you.

I have grown to love you. Your every being.
From your smile to the tears
I have never seen in your eyes.
From your desires to your dreams, I love you.
That is how I feel about you.
You cannot question my love.
But if you do…
I do not know the start.
I do not know how far it stretches…
So please…
just know that I love you.

From your deadly sensual kisses
To the feel of my fingers in your hair
To your steamy breath on my skin.
I love you.
But besides all these… I want to
Live to see my wrinkled fingers
Running through your grey hair.

And still…I will still love you.
Like the day I first saw you
When your beauty was on stage
And I was the only one at that contest
Who saw a vision of us together.
I do not know how far my love stretches…
I do not know where it started.

So please…
I am out of words.
