    On Knowing When This Is IT

    On Knowing When This Is IT

    When you think of that one person

    At odd times during the day;

    When they constantly shock you,

    While just acting their way;

    When morning doesn't come

    Soon enough to speak again;

    When the endless night

    Is comfort in each other's arms;

    When the world loses meaning

    Without their laughter;

    When time is no obstacle

    And the present is enough;

    When you understand truth

    In a new and perfect way;

    When fun becomes entwined

    With the meaning of them;

    When you sigh at quiet moments

    While closing your eyes to dream;

    When they look their most beautiful

    In plain clothing and no perfume;

    When words become known

    And poetry is made;

    Then you know that this is IT.

    That is it. When you know that you are in love or at least infatuated deeply. Sometimes it continuess even after the relationship is seemingly over.

    Ah!... every woman wants to know if there is allure absent of artifice. That becomes the definition of true, the foundation for all future fantasies.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
