A Poem About Love

Love should in fact be one of the easiest things to write about. And yet for me the concept of love is one I know but to put the concept into words is not an easy one.
There is the word LOVE which means to have positive feelings for, feeling of acceptance, tolerance and respect.
Why then does love hurt so much at times. It is when the feelings are not mutual and when one feels more love than the other that there can be hurt.
Even between a mother and child, or between the Universe and you and I. Even the most unconditional love really indeed asks for something in return.

And so I will write a poem on Love

For me to have felt love is to have felt encompassed by thy light
To be in the womb full of fluid that gives and gives and wants nothing in return
The lantern that was lit long ago with the spark was just waiting to be ignited with a breath
And so here I am today breathing in the realities of life
and yet understanding the presence of the absence of lies
Thank you for bringing me to the threshold and letting me cross
It is now me who decides if I want to be the beloved or the one who loves
In these rays at this moment of sunset, I feel the warmth of the moon light
I am loved and I am the beloved
You are me and I am you
There is no me and there is no you
In this space I resolve to love

A poem about love of child and mother or father

There is a seed in gestation that is bitter at times and yet the parents are waiting to give it light
Light is love and with each breath the child will receive love
This is called unconditional love
but now I know that there is nothing unconditional in life accept ONE
The love of a parent is as close as one can get to that one
The love of a child is trying to replicate love
Holding hands of your elderly parent at the hospital shows that you are both vuenreble
and one needs to be carried by the other at times
The beauty of such love can be seen in all animals and even in us
I like knowing that I have felt my daughters latch on to me as I will one day look to hold their arms

The classic “love” between two lovers

In today’s world I can easily say that I will not write about He and She
I know that love can come from he to she and from she to he
But I also have witnessed the beautiful love between he and he
even though all around everyone said it was wrong
And what about her, she is a beauty indeed, in love with her, the other her
Their relations are condemned in many places, but today all I can do is to praise love
Love of the lovers swimming in light
As long as the candle that is lit is pointing to one place and that is inside
we are looking for the same eternal love inside
The seeds in gestation in search of acceptance in life
