Love is

Love is

A Poem by Sapphus

Love is
A season
A day
An hour
A minute
A nanosecond
But not eternal
Love is wind
Love is dust
Love dies

I appreciate this honesty. It humbles love, like so many are reluctant to do. At the end of the day, love is not a magical immortal self-sustaining entity. By extension, it validates love that doesn't last when so many try to take that label of love away. A lot to take in here. Love is wind, love is dust, love dies. So well phrased.

You are welcome my friend.
this short work cuts like a knife. it is truth told, and a bitter pill to swallow. all joy in this world is temporary, except one: wisdom. and this poem offers that too. by knowing our time with a loved one is short, we can bring ourselves to a higher plane of existence. and that ascendance might have a ripple effect...

Thank you for reviewing.
I'd say I believe love changes it's colours as we experience, it's never a finite form, and I must say love is an energy and it's just like physics says, energy is never destroyed, only it changes its form. Love the idea this poem invokes, it's melancholic but it sure has more than we can read here.

Oh girl.... if it's die, it's not love.

Love holds the meaning "immortal " itself.

Hop actual true love will knock your heart soon.
Keep penning:)

Beautiful brevity here. I like to think that we leave some love behind us when we pass. I enjoyed my visit.

Dies and returns to dust.
I so agree with this poem and then I look at my folks who were
