I Loved You Once


I loved you once, and you loved me
with maddening intensity
through your eyes I learned to see
I loved you once, and you loved me
if only I were courageous, yours I’d still be
though her charms are sweet and witty
I loved you once, and you loved me
with maddening intensity
  




A Triolet posted for #NaPoWriMo. My first of 30 poems that I will post, one for every day in the month of April. I'm looking forward to reading and sharing this poetic plethora of prolific verse with the community of poets who have accepted the challenge to join fellow journeymen as we march across days and pages, write on dear ones.
