Poems and Poetry: Symbolic Gateway
Symbolic Gateway
“I love you” are words often spoken
By many without actually knowing
What they means or just for the fun of it
But in my mouth they are not formulaic
Or perfunctory
They express what I feel in my heart
The type of love that is unperishable
You’re the symbolic gateway before me
Some sought to keep the gate open
Some sought to keep it shut tight
For me the gate must be eternally
Kept open.
