What Is Love?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A black and white mind has images of love dancing about

Brings a breath of warm sunshine to sullen land

A spectrum of color splashs upon blank canvas

Fills a life with glorious array of wonderment

 

Does love last a brevity of time?

Or does it stick around?

An empty heart that has never felt love wants to know

What is love?

 

A wrath of a hand

Lips of hateful words

Evil eyes that despise what they see

A black and white world with no color

 

She looks around and see smiling faces

Laughter bubbling in the air

Hands embracing

Lips softly speaking, I love you

Is that love she wonders

 

A world of color filled with love seems out of reach

She lives in black and white

Watches as love colors every one but her

She is alone and confused

What is love?

Reviews

[Zeitgeist Manifesto]

I think you covered every base of what is love and what is not. The things we do for love change not only ourselves, but the world. This poem is a testament to human nature.

[InkSlinger]

Love is everything, and nothing at all..
A good love, can bring you up, and set you free..
A bad love, can bring you down, and smother you..

Well done..

[Audrey Howitt]

Love is complicated! Nice write! I wonder what color(s) love would be?
