~ True Love ~

 

 

 Tr.u.e. L.o.v.e.

 ‘Bridges’ yet crossed - or even burned

 

That afternoon in autumn,

 

 the Sun began releasing ‘Her Tears of Hope’,

 

 Standing there embracing,

 

looking up, as a light mist caressed our faces…

 

True Love, Indeed… the strongest, matched by no other

Lost in attraction, steady ones breath, are you listening?

Interpersonal love, shaped of elements of fallacy -

Spawns the birth, now borne of Love or Infatuation?

 

Jane Doe: “When we talk, you're always attentive to everything”

John Doe: “I Love how you cook, clean and treat me like a King”

 

Love begins of innocence, nothing short of harmless

Craving sense of mystery, passing boundaries, no expectations

Desire to please; you do not want to possess…

Engulfed in Flames of shadowed passions, your heart at rest!

 

Jane Doe: “You used to dive in, exploring my shores”

John Doe: “You appreciated, respected my Love. Now…you Expect so-much-more.”

 

Choices made, perceptions viewed, push to shove…

Could you spend your life, 24 hours a day with the one you Love?

Can Love last forever…? What do we 'choose' to sacrifice…? Exactly…  

Explore the nature, understanding the function of Love.

 

Jane Doe: “Ashamed I am, concealing pain with silent cries �" you never cared”

John Doe: “You thrive on mind games of torment and despair”

 

Pain vibrates, shattered dreams, crossing lines of gray

Tomorrow, soon will deliver an 'envelope of dismay'

Rhythm of dance, life once treasured, now lost forever…

To each left scars, unseen, chiseled within their soul...

 

Jane Doe: “I guess you never really loved me at all!”

John Doe: “Go ahead and take another picture off the wall!”

 

 

 

On first glance, Love (First Love, for the second time, third or so-on)

We believe this is {True Love}…

 

Is this possible?

Do we have an idea of their favorite color, number, T.V. show and/or what makes them (tick)?

No~… We seem to judge the visible aspects such as appearance, smell, things outwardly that pulls us in.

 

Can Love really be defined?  Does True Love ever fail us?

 Are 'We' willing to work through differences together? (Not by looking in front of 'Us')

 We seem to exclude ourselves �" that’s right… This is a one-way-street, right…?

Love...in all facets -

A development of ‘who we are'...Want to ‘be’...What we can ‘do/be’ for others…

SILENT PROMISE 'ONCE MADE', LEFT DROWNING IN A SOUR GLASS OF WINE... 

Does True Love 'Ever Die'...?

A unique format made this fun to read.....the stanzas in red, to me, are like a narrator speaking his piece, and then his voice fades away in time for the vignettes of dialogue.

I can easily see this acted out on a stage with spot lighting alternating between Jane & John Doe and the narrator, who is off to the side.

A wonderfully insightful write about the cycles of love and human relationships.

This is really great, love is wonderful.

Very ingenious in your presentation, it's like being able to view the subjective You-universe and the objective universe simultaneously. I enjoyed it very much.

i've personally come to detest the word- not that we have much better to use. I like your style and formatting and watching the rise and fall.

[Tattootiger]

pretty kewl, i liked how you used all the really detailed words in it and separated the red and black writing.

And this is also uplifting to me, makes me wanna find true love and believe in it. (click click) ;)

The commitment of staying in love is the hardest thing any of us will do in life, true love is only found between two people who can close the door to the out side world when they are together. Time has to be spent looking into each others souls

Loved your writing.

[Eden Ashes]

[Jacqueline]

This is a one-of-a-kind piece of work.
I not only like the writing and wording, but the way you presented eccentuates it's individuality.
Great work.

This was very experimental...very different. I think that it was a little hard for me to get in to the "flow" of this one, but when I stopped trying to look at it as a typical "poem" it came together a little more and I was able to read it more like beautiful prose.

The writing was superb...the feelings were wonderful and drenched me in the light of love. Wonderfully entertaining...

Wow!!!! Holy Crap!!!! Were you there when my ex and I split, lurking in a bush, hiding in a tree, or something? LOL It's like a scene written out of my life almost verbatim. This totally caught me by surprise.

Great Writing!!!! I love this.
