What is Love?

What is Love?

A Poem by Average person
"

baby dont hurt me, dont hurt me, no more! (sorry i had to) but in all seriousness what is love?

"
She stares out the window,
Watching his car pull away,
Tears falling down her cheeks

What is love?
She asks,
To no one but herself

Love is letting someone go,
even when you want them to stay
She dries her tears,
She knows she must set him free

Love is knowing in your heart,
that they are the only one for you
She gets up,
Staring after him one last time

Love is waiting patiently for them to return,
Because they are all you want
She sits at a table where forever she shall wait,
Until he decides he loves her too

The concept made me...almost morose. Love is such a callous thing at times. And then it leaves you full as well. It hit me. Thanks for this

Thank you :)
Great write, great narration, unravelling of message is so beautiful, real love is letting it go, totally agreeing with it, and keeping it with you, does not matter it will make you another beautiful, magnificent lover, you can disagree with my perspective totally, which will make all the sense in the world of diverse perspectives which makes all complete

You most welcome, my pleasure
What is love? While others seek it. Others have love come into there hands.
But is love just a facade created by your brain to fill The lonelyness or desire that lies within ones self?
If it is why do we still yearn it to the point where we can't stand it.
What is love.
Very good question and very good write.
Bravo.
