ELUSIVE LOVE


Why can't it be found 
Love! Stop eluding me.

Love is giving, caring, kind, patient, selfless...but why is it so elusive? 
Am I  not giving enough? Caring enough?
Am I not kind enough? Patient enough? 
Do I not live a selfless life?

How much should one compromise?
How much does one sacrifice 
How much more pain should one endure 
Before it is said that love is found?

Where does one look for love? 
And in whom will love be found?
How does one determine when love is truly found?

How worthy am I,
How worthy are you, to be loved?
Can this thing called L O V E be found?

I am a wife and mother of a four-year-old. I am a poet and a blogger and I enjoy going on excursions, playing in the sand, walking among the trees, admiring beauty of nature, and the God created world. Apart from writing I also love photography another favourite hubby, which I do in my spear time. Writing brings me joy and especially poetry, which helps me with my self-expression. Music plays a major role in my creation of poetry and blog.
