I Do Know How Love Truly Is (English Sonnet) Poem by Gert Strydom

Although at times I do you not understand,
at times we laugh and at times tears do flow,
with you I do always know were I stand,
I do you truthfully and still completely know.

I know that a person cannot love too much,
that life is unpredictable in how it's to be,
there is more than electricity when we touch,
at the times when you are the real you to me.

I do know how love truly is in its essence,
that you bring to me both pain and bliss,
that I am the complete me in your presence,
that with you my life is supposed be like this,

that even with a deadly thing going around
with you I am always on solid ground
