The Power Of Love Poem by SIYETHEMBA THWALA

When I first saw you
I was afraid to talk to you
When I first talked to you
I was afraid to like you
When I first liked you
Now that I love you
I'm afraid to lose you

Baby you are my lesson
I have to learn
And your heart it's been open
So I must close it with my love
Because in your heart, I don't feel sad
I know some people left your heart broken
But you have to try to let it go
And I can't take your answer if it's no

Baby when we are together
There is nothing hard to try
There is no dark place to hide
But we it all with a smile
Because I mend your heart from miles
We embrace this with the power of love

When I first saw you
You took my breath away
When I asked you out, you couldn't respond
When you touched me,
I got shivers all through my body

And when we first kissed
I floated away in my dreams
I love you baby
Not only for what you are,
But for what I am when I am with you
You can fall from the sky,
You can fall from a tree
But the best way to fall is in love with me

The shortest word for me is I
The sweetest word for me is love,
The only one for me is you
There must be something wrong with my eyes
Because I can't take my eyes off you
Every morning I wake up happy
Because I know I will see you
Did the sun just come out
Or did you just smile at me?
With the power of love

Yet I know that
A relationship is like a rose
And that is the fact
How long it lasts, no one knows
Love can be yours, you will see at last
To feel that love, it makes you sigh,
To have it leave, you would rather die
And yes I have found that special rose
Cause I love and care for the one I chose
Baby in my heart, you the one who rules,
Love is above all the gift of oneself.
