Have You Ever Really Loved Somebody? (Poem)

Have You Ever Really Loved Somebody?

Have you ever really loved somebody
So strongly that you felt their heartbeat inside your own
So deeply that their well-being was more important than your own existence
So passionately that it encompassed every atom of your being
So fervently that no matter what transpired, you can't deny to yourself that the love remains?
Love like that, in spite of pain and grief, never dies
You might be able to lie to others about it
You might be able to lie to yourself... for awhile
Even when hope no longer exists
Love still resides



Misery
