When Love Knocks
Written for "EXPRESS IT IN EIGHT " Open in new Window., off topic: Written to my wife for Valentine's Day


Love was hurtful, love was anguish and pain.
Love was nothing but giving without any gain.
I gave up on loving, swore I’d do it no more
Until the day when you knocked on my door.

Yes, that was the day you changed my life,
For when I opened the door I met my wife.
Twenty-two years have passed by the way
And I love you more with each passing day.


2023 Quill Nominee.

"Reading soothes the soul, writing sets it free." T.J.

About The Author
My writing doesn't follow any set genre, it's interdependent of my mood and all that's taking place in life. I'm still finding myself, what I write constitutes the markers along the path of that journey. With time, many things will manifest in my work and perhaps I will pursue one or two genres. For now, it's not, "What type of writing is my passion?" "Writing is my passion."
