Love Is... Poem by Leanne Henderson

Love is…

Love is as strong as a rock
Then why do I feel like dry sand?
Love conquers all
Why do I feel so utterly defeated?
Love gives us peace
Why am I in total turmoil?
Love makes us strong
Why do I feel so weak?
Love gives us peace
I rage an internal war
Love is blind
My eyes are all seeing
Love knows no boundaries
I have a huge internal wall
Love is unconditional
I have conditioned myself well
Love fills the heart
My heart is barren
Yet… when you look at me
Yet… when you touch me

I know nothing about love but; sweet surrender and the quiet of my soul
