What is love?

Poem Commentary

This is what I wish I could feel

What is love?

Is love,
Seeing stars in an other's eyes
Feeling safe with there arm around you
Smiling without meaning to smile
Caring without wanting to care
Being your best friend, your passion
Needing to be near one another
Missing them when they just left
Anxious to hear their voice
Watching a movie together without seeing the screen
Kissing each other with such passion
Hurting when they hurt
Burning when they cry
Listening when they speak
Dancing without knowing how to dance
Wanting their skin on yours
Feeling their body heating with yours
Feeling your heart pounding when every you think of them
Feeling your blood boiling without being touched
Seeing their blood pool with every stroke of your hand
Watching as their cheeks turn from pink to deep red with every glance in their direction
Seeing them in your sleep
Hurt so much more then you have ever hurt before if and when they leave you for the last time
Is all this love?
Who can know for sure what love really is?

This is beautiful. I like the concept of this. Instead of telling people what love is, you're asking as if you are not sure yourself... I like this write. You are talented! Thank you for sharing. Post some more poems! I would love to read them.

thank you:D

When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
