The stars know you like a summer friend <br />At a midnight bonfire upon the beach, <br />Your laughter and songs mesmerize everyone <br />Who refuses to fall asleep. <br /> <br />I ask myself repeatedly, <br />How do I accept love when losing love <br />Has been the only life I’ve known <br />Throughout the history of my sad existence? <br /> <br />But everyday I’m learning to let go <br />Of all the pain I’ve caused and known; <br />I bid farewell to disappointment <br />And trust you implicitly. <br /> <br />If you give me a chance, <br />I’ll prove this love is true <br />And will last on through <br />To the opening day of eternity. <br /> <br />Please deign to look my way <br />When the moonlight covers my face with rapture, <br />You will see the tenderness that infiltrates <br />Every pore of my being with longing for you, <br />And then I’ll know you’re mine <br />Until your final breath departs your body <br />Baby soft like a child blowing a dandelion.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/how-do-i-accept-love/
