Love Poem: I Have Searched

I Have Searched

I have searched my entire life
For a man as good as you are to me 
I have longed since childhood
For someone to believe in me 
I have walked a thousand miles
For a love I didn't find until now 
I have spent all my life 
I have spent all my  time 
Crying until now 
I once dreamed of a love so true
I pondered on thoughts of passion 
I wondered if I would ever feel it 
And now I have this devotion
Searching myself I wonder 
How long can true love last
When it is tortured so
Will it be  rescued at last 
Can distance and time make us strong
Or will it  tear us apart 
The thought  of losing you makes em weak 
Knowing there would be distance to start
I don't know how much  more 
That  my heart  can take 
I've been packing my heart  with ice 
And putting everything I have at  stake 
Yet is love enough to carry 
All this weight and sorrow I feel 
This horrid  abandonment that  consumes me ?
