Poetry of Robert E. Kogan — Poems of Life, Love & Social Commentary

Insecurity

Perhaps a small amount

    of insecurity

is good for a relationship.

Too much security and love

    is taken for granted.

        This is only natural,

        This is the way things are

        supposed to be.

Accept your love, without

experiencing it’s beauty.

        For this is only natural.

        This is the way things are

        supposed to be.

May I never take your love for granted,

        but appreciate the warmth, the freshness,

        a special gift you give each day.

Let my insecurity be a sign

    of my appreciation

of my devotion

    of my constant love for you.

and thank you for giving it

        one more day.
