The Measurement of LoveA Poem by N_dot_AIMLESS
Listen Girl, I know that you hate it
But love is not a thing that is quantitative It's an emotion, a feeling, not an object for boasting Couldn't find the meaning, let me extrapolate it You can't love one thing, or one person more than the other You can just have love, from children to mothers Girlfriends to lovers, Friends to enemies True people, and false covers, love spans beyond milline and centuries There is no, I love you more, than I've ever loved anyone before There is just love, What you're describing is attachment To a feeling that you want more of But when you rehatched it found the same dang thing You're like the playground king And this is child's play If Love is a game to you, like burger king, have it my way Just remember all the poison in your' fry tray You can't measure love, because it vibrates There is no metric system of romanticism To determine which love is more powerful in vision You can care more, or have more attachment to But you can't love more than love and that's true That's where me and you split like taboos and society, your love is just a lie to me It's like mental piracy, with so many contingencies I'm just trying to be me And find acceptance from the people around me Let me break it down, I love my son So there's nothing he could do that would break my ground Let me break it out, yo, I Love my parents So no matter what they say or do, I will always be there for them Let me break it up, I love my brother He could never make me feel a way that's any other Let me break my back, I love my friends And they love me back So no matter what kind of purposeful or accidental attack They could project, I will still love them all til death Let me break bad, I love my enemy He is just a mirror image that my subconscious sent to me Let me break your' heart, I love you girl If you gave me enough time, I would show you the world If you sifted through my rhymes, you'd see my mind unfurled What's mine is yours', I'm yours', and you don't even know it Because I don't really show it, but I don't know how to show it I'm on a tidal wave, just tryn to flow with it So know this, take notice, there's no ulterior motives I'm just numb from all the commotion sending ripples through my ocean for so long, So even if it's so long, sianara, see ya later All that matters is we're trying harder Because new beginning are better than bitter ends, with sour twists And standing still, is better than guilt vacations and power trips Maybe we are all vampires, liven lies, trying to inspire those around us to bleed us until we die But i'm done sucking prana from y'all, accept my karma and fall Into the stream, that flows into the sea of everything Love is not measured in centimeters or inches, There is no volume, no surface areas, no megabits no syntax No beakers with liters of love, no scales that can weigh it No demons can slay it I say, But approach it tactfully I don't know a thing girl Just love, and get back to me
