Life And Love

by Libby M   Feb 21, 2006


Life is a mystery we are all trying to figure out.
Love is not.
It has been because of love that we cannot figure out life,
For Love is beautiful, pure, healing, giving, true, complete, and so-
People often fail to do, to understand, to give just that;
They are frequently in love with only the idea-
And so love has failed too many people on this earth, or so they thought.
Often people are left wondering-Where did things go wrong?
Love is so powerful it leaves many on bended knees,
It asks so little, people forget and begin to give more than asked for.
And so we often wonder how we are still standing,
Standing without completely comprehending the idea of Love?
I am searching to find you, to give you what love offers.
I pray to find you soon, because time is on no one’s side.
But as the Lord has declared, we all must learn patience,
And all is given to man at the right Godly time.
Life and love, they go hand in hand-learn how to love,
Living will not be a task, rather a given.

    This is a very deep piece, you've taken two concepts (love and life) and captured the meanings so truthfully and eloquently. This poem really makes one think. Very well written and expressed.

    Peace,

    This is a great poem on not only love, but life, You have captured a truth and revelation here that many need to learn and accept.All things in their time.And sometimes love finds us when we are not even looking for it or have given up on what we believe love is.Faith and patience and hope are the salvation of the lost and lonely.Never despair, never give up.You have expressed this so well, with such meaning and emotion.
