I HAVE LEARNT

barbara

I have learnt to love

Though I was not born into love

I have learned to be generous

Though it hurts to give

I have learnt to loose

Though it scares me to be last

I have learnt to forgive

Though it hurts to let go

 I have learnt to love God

Though its painful  not to be in the world

I have learnt to speak my mind

Though others may misinterpret

I have learnt to hold my head high

Though everyone bows the head

I have learnt to be strong

Though I can’t hold on any longer

I have learnt

And I really learnt the bitter way

Though am proud I finally learnt

What makes you who you are

    Very, very good Barbra, I really enjoyed this poem! You have a special way with words for someone so young. A poem full of pathos and poignancy, it also has good structure and meaning. BF

    This one beats the rest ... and since I've rated the others as 10, I guess I can't really express a higher rating, but if I could I would give it a 20
