With or Without Love

by shawn   Dec 22, 2006


Not sure if this really counts as a poem, i was just writing down my thoughts on the matter, but here it goes anyways.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Love.

Such a funny word love is,
Being used in many different ways,

Could it mean that one is perfect to another,
Or that that one person is the only one.

It lacks meaning to some coming either to early or to late,
While others can not get enough of it.
They only way to know which path you have chosen is to say the three words that most dread saying,
Hoping that they have chosen the perfect time, when in all actuality it does not matter when u say it.
As long as it comes from the heart.

Some men tend to through the term around when really they just want something else,
They will say the phrase and take only a sliver of what the word brings to many.
Misunderstood some fall into the trap,
Scared for life making the word harder to believe,
They go on from that point creating people that they are afraid.

Afraid to use the word love.
Because these broken people have said it had others afraid of feeling the same hurt again,
Not knowing what they have caused.

A chain reaction going from one to another until everyone is afraid of the greatest feeling in the world,
Many never knowing what this feeling is like will go through world not believing in love.
Never sharing the joys or sorrows of others close to them.

While those of us who have found it after years try to help bring others in from the cold,
To where it is warm and fun,
Sure love can have random acts of despair,
But love can never die.

For anyone!

It is the unwritten rule, everyone will find love at some point in there life, maybe more than once,
But if you find it never let go,
Even if it means giving up something else.

Freedom, Beauty, Truth and Love.
Even the other two of the bohemian ways all originate at love.
If one does not believe in love one will never be happy
And nothing can keep you from being happy

Just believe,
Believe that love is the best feeling in the world.
And you will see that everything else gets better.
Because without love everything feels hollow and empty.
And no one truly wants that
