Love is not
something you can
hold in your hands
and tarnish like brass.

It cannot be described by children
making wishes in pen-flicks
that one day their poems might come true.

It is not about all the displaced "lovers"
lamenting touches and stolen things
they so readily gave away-
hearts, lungs, lips, private places
they tried to fill with empty words
and longing.

Love is not a disease,

nor a biological metaphor for chaos,

nor the sum of all your words or mine.

It is something more.

Something I've wanted to say for a very long time.

What is love not to you?

Wow.
I mean, what can I say when you just said it all.

-- peace !
:iconhe-said-she-said:
I agree completely. Sometimes people make it so obvious it's something they have never experienced when they try to describe it. :no:

I've seen some pretty off metaphors in my day.

Why wait to say something like this? You should have let it fly asap!
