Need to Nurture

Poem Artwork

 

Time after time again
I find myself in errant
ways, taking in strays

My need to nurture,
my need to care,
the culprit I fear

Love is a powerful
drug that can heal,
 a tug on heartstring

Make your heart sing
and find its way
into suns ray

Passion at play
is how we stay
in our own way

I will never change,
never heed a 
heartless cause

Not even if taken
by someones force
I am aligned in me

And this is the key
to a bearable life
as far as I can see

Beautifully crafted, Many people have the need to nurture, but few can express it in this fine manner.
