Love, love
It repeats in my mind like a heartbeat
Only when you die it never stops
It’s serene, yet bewildering
And when you try to put it aside
It puts aside you
It is infinity, yet different
But the same
And somehow more
You feel like no one will ever feel that way
And it’s true
Caring, Liking, Confusion, Thought
That is love
There’s that word again
Love, love
Your heartbeat, my heartbeat, our heartbeat
People draw hearts to indicate love
But hearts are organs pumping blood through your body
And I know you’re better than that
Love is in the soul
Like a guitar, every time you discover a new song
You find harmony, strength, power, freeing of the mind
Altogether in a soul of love
Barely contained by a fragment of sanity
But who needs sanity
Go wild
Enchant everyone by making hope for love
Soul not heart
Peace, calm, all yet more into one simple word
LOVE

That is an excellent poem there! It's nice to see different perspectives on love. You have talent with the pen.



You commented on some of my animal photography...

Yes, I was really as close as it appears in the photos. The snakes are mine...I was about 2 feet away from the zebras. Glad you enjoyed my photography!



Please feel free to read and comment on my articles in RAW. I'd love to hear feedback. :)



Until then -

Wow...I mean...wow! The way you articulate the true meaning of love is just...wow. Your interpretation is different than one I have ever read before, and it is so true! Excellent! I must read more of your work! KEEP ON WRITING!!!
