True Love

Shannon Tyrell Vereen 1979 (georgia)



I think about you day and night,
hoping that you never leave my sight.
Wishing I can always be near,
knowing I'm in your heart, I have no fear.
Fear if what? You leaving me for another man,
breaking my heart with all the pieces in your hands.
Longing to be your one and only boo,
writing this poem to show you my love was always true.
I LOVE YOU.
