What We Have
A Poem by Matthew Spades
Our love is deep,
Far deeper than the darkness of the ocean.
.
Our love is pure,
Far purer than that of the sweetest spring.
.
Our love is rare,
Far rarer than the most sought after gem.
.
That is what we have,
What we are ready to give.
.
That is what we own,
What we are ready to share.
.
That is what we are,
What we are ready to grant.
.
But rarely do we ever find the right one.
.
Rarely do we ever see someone to treat us right.
.
Rarely do we ever get what we deserve.
.
We've been bent.
.
We've been broken.
.
We've been bruised.
.
People like us love with all our hearts;
That is why we are scared to love again.
.
We are afraid to love
and not get the love back
.
We are terrified to give anything;
for we know we will receive nothing in return.
.
But what frightens us the most is loving with everything that we've got,
only to get what we have taken away.
This is what we have...
Or should I say,
what we have left.
