Truer Definition of Love

Inspired by a search on the definition of love and inspired by Andrew Marvell

Walking in the rain and I checked the box for mail

There on the metal was a note and the night felt like a fairy tail

A simple call me with names, numbers and a happy face

Yet the memories of love were evoked by the handwriting on the page

There is something lovely about handwritten notes no matter the message

It looked like he used a sharpie to get to me

In the moment I saw the lovely

Due to the late hour I wasn’t going to return a response

I left it on my bed turned the computer on

The evoked memories of love are strong

Andrew Marvell defines love,

" which us doth bind

But Fate so enviously debars,

Is the conjunction of the mind

And opposition of the stars."

Yet I walk on in life with a hope filled heart

I believe in God and I know infinite impossibilities can still start

My love is of a birth as rare

As ’tis for object strange and high

It was begotten by Despair

Upon Impossibility

I hope this poet doesn’t mind the inclusion of reference

I stumbled upon this definition from search results on the internet 

I can’t help but hope for us

I want to write new poetry that inspires a new definition of love

I believe it is something that can never be bottled and labeled

We may find lessons in the fable

Yet I know our connection is bullet proof and stable

Why worry about someone after getting blocked?

Did he really have to know for sure?

Couldn’t wisdom bring him an answer

He is my beautiful stranger

Filled with toxic and danger

I love him still

Always and forever

I hear the words whispered

For me this is the definition of love

It doesn’t ask why or what

There is no diamond ring to the puppet string

We are free

In peace

We walk toward each other naked

Soaking in life tender and sacred

Some times rules have to be broken

So our hearts can be open

To things unheard of

To see the divine layer of God so we can learn a truer definition of love
