A Poem About What I Think Love Is

 

Tablo reader up chevron

 Love

What is that?

Shouts of joy

Or cries for help


Feelings or Emotions?

Predictions or dipiction

Laughter 

Hmm,

Only you can make a bird sing 

I would have said


Waiting or leaving?

Sorrow filled songs

Ratched dirty clothes


How is love such a good thing?

Is depending on you infidelity 

Must I sit and weep for you to just

HEAR

Hear it

I love you or

I loved you


But as I may say just this once

Love is like a rose

All beautiful and gentle

Soft petals begging for attention 

Oh, but listen 

When a rose is plucked 

And and not catered for correctly 

It will die


Why is love such a beautiful curse

So tempting 

But too delicate 

Ravishing in the light

A demon in the dark


Oh I wished you would have loved me

But as I have said it is gentle 

And so is my heart


Adieu love

Adieu my love
