Love Poem: Loves That Go Untold

Loves That Go Untold

The many loves that go untold;
Embrace all the loves I could hold.
Ah, but there are one or two that could have been swell.
But, there again I cannot tell.

I will converse, however, in some obscure way;
And try to defend that wonderful day –
She was radiant, shy, and had not been compromised.
I desired her so much that mind was somewhat surprised.

Longevity plus beginning sometimes equal a minus unknown –
But, hearts only stop to listen to other hearts not your mind’s logical tone. 
Eagerly and foolishly I set my heart in motion –
To capture her love was my sole driving notion.

The unequaled beauty of her entity while in possession of that lovely form and life
Has captured my thoughts and, most certainly, my heart –
How can I now confess I love her without inducing trouble and strife?
But, I do from the very start.

She has come into my world totally innocent and unfettered; just the opposite of me –
And, I guess the desperate need in me to love someone like her has only now come to be.
Why destiny intersects us now?  To only make me blue?
It is a form of sheer hell – totally new!
