Sweet Sadness

There is a sweet sadness within love
known only by the two deeply inside
those who welcome the newness of
soul blending as if a proven friend

They revel in warm tingles of doubt
sadly seeking assurance from energy
as one gives to another for reaching
glorious peaks found in mutual bliss

Perhaps it is written and beyond doubt
that one must know a sadness before
unimaginable joy and in that we are
truly humbled before being rewarded


F William Broome 2007

I fully agree to the effects described here. Sweet sadness in a short poem that doesn't want to be longer.

This is one of your best reflective works William, I like to think the same thing, when things are going badly at least we know that when things go right how much we can truly appreciate them..
