Your Love

You touch me with your love and care
Shower me with loving attention and affection
You tell me you don’t care
If you have me by your side
for one day, one week or a year
Anytime I’m free to walk away
But I refuse to give in to my loneliness and desires
And use you this way

You tell me you don’t want anyone else
But our interests are not aligned
Our heart waves are not tuned and signed
To each other and to our inner mind
We come from two different worlds
Like the sea and the desert folds
That only meet when it rains and cries
But You tell me you don’t care
If you have me for one day, one week or a year
Anytime I’m free to walk away
But I refuse to give in to my loneliness and desires
And use you this way

You would have made the perfect husband and father
Had my heart not been a maze
And the key lost without a trace
I’m not the simple girl you need
But You tell me you don’t care
If you have me for one day, one week or a year
Anytime I’m free to walk away
But I refuse to give in to my loneliness and desires
You have value and worth
The temptation to give in to what you say
Is beating at me from every doorway
But, you are precious in God’s eyes
And I refuse to use you this way

Hi, marina1000,
But our interests are not aligned
Our heart waves are not tuned and signed
To each other and to our inner mind

The poem's "I" remains true to self by also refusing to be used to satisfy another in this poem that paints love which demands two hearts aligned. To not give in to my loneliness and desires And use you this way requires true strength. Bravo! Thank you for sharing.
