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

Your Strength

When at last we finally meet

I will not ask, beg, plead or cry

For you to give me all your love.

you have more strength than I.

 

And I shall love you for your strength,

And should it falter, love that too –

For both in strength and in weakness

I am consumed in loving you.

 

And even now when we’re apart,

You’ll always hear me sigh –

Wishing I had known you when

You had less strength than I.
