she’ll never look at me that way
like tauriel looked at kili
i sit with my chest gripped by iron bands of sorrow
knowing this simple truth
what i would give of myself to have that kind of love
everything
my kingdom of empty words
for that
i would give you my every thought and dream and wish
if you would just love me too
“if this is love, i don’t want it. why does it hurt so much?”
“because it was real.” tauriel and thandrull
truer words my love
none i’ve heard

This, gorgeous and romantically expressed! I have always told my son’s ” love wants nothing but love in return”.
And now…The poetic red carpet has been laid out for all the ladies of Word Press to take notice of distinguished romantic poetry, and one of the best of the best modern day poets! As the curtain closes…take your bow…

Here’s to hoping those ladies are out there somewhere reading it. Doubtful if my languishing love life has anything to say though.
