Love

Love

A Poem by Nelyn Salvaleon

Love isn't about heartaches.
It's about the happiness that you'll give to a person freely.
It's also about the joy that you'll get when you love.
Love is the greatest gift of God.
It's the best feeling for anyone who doesn't afraid to fall in love.

Even if there's someone who doesn't love you back,
It doesn't mean love hurts.
It simply means the feeling ain't mutual.
If you love someone, you will not expect that someone you love will love you back.
When you give love, it must be unconditional.

Loving someone is free.
Whoever you are, as long as you don't have a heart of stone,
You'll get the best feeling when you love.
Because love is the most powerful feeling
That can make your life worth living.

Featured Review

The best part of your poem is the middle verse, since it often happens that one person loves the other person more & this often means love will be withheld becuz the balance is not equal, as if love isn't working right there. After all, humans love much worse than God does, but He keeps on loving us anyway! It would be good for people to continue loving, even when the other person doesn't feel the same way in return, just becuz it feels good to be a loving person. The part I don't like about your poem is when you use the pronoun "you" -- this sounds a little preachy, like the narrator is telling me how to love. Nobody likes being told how to live life, so I recommend using the pronoun "we" -- this sounds inclusive, like you are speaking to everyone, including yourself. This is just my preference for inspirational writing, but otherwise, your message is spot on (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
