Love is nothing
Love is lost
Love's what one pays for
at too high a cost

Love is so plastic
Love is so vague
Live is a sickness
that spreads like the plague

Love has no meaning
Love is for naught
Love is just that
which can only be bought

Love is a farce
Love is a fake
Love is as cheep
as a wedding cake

Love is a gamble
Love is a strain
Love is a feeling
that brings only pain

Love is a scam
Love is a waste
Love is a flavor
that I'll never taste

Love is a slut
Love is a whore
Love is an aspect
of life to ignore

Love is just anger
Love is just madness
Love is just something
that fills you with sadness

Love is pure darkness
Love has no light
Love is an emotion
I cast from my sight

Hey G.A..glad to see ya posting again...
this is VERY good... sad and bitter, anger laced...but very well expressed...
only love can make us feel so many emotions...dark  or light...
nice work, take care janet marie

 ...every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
every poem and song...
every rhyme and verse...
your still here...like a beautiful curse.
your my inspiration, your my fire...
your words fill me with poetic desire.
Every moment of every day...
your still with me in every way.
Janet Marie

I love you, always.*

Hey Mr Webb welcome back.  I've missed you  
Sad and hurt, let down emotions portrayed here.  Well written.  If you are down and need to talk you know where to find me, you could send an EMAIL instead of a FORWARD  
Hugs and Namaste my friend  

 May the world hug you today,
With it's warmth and love.
I pray it whispers a joyful tune in your heart,
That tell you there is a friend sitting in another corner of the world,
Wishing you well and
wishing you love......

Love has so many meanings.  Thank you for having the insight to come up with all of the non-cliche definitions.  I liked this poem a lot, G.A. Webb.  It is so honest, it hurts.

Love- it never lives up, does it? I really liked the use of the word "silkness" I hope that's not a typo, and if it is, can you leace it like it is? Great showing of passionate feelings.

Janet Marie - Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I haven't posted in a while because nothing had come to mind as of late until this popped up. Thanks again.

Isis - I'm sorry I haven't had a chance to do more than forward e-mails to you, but such is the life of Mr. Mom. I haven't forgotten about you, just haven't had much time. Thanks for the offer, it means a lot to me and thanks for taking the time to read this. I'm glad you liked it.

sonjes - I'm really glad you saw this piece in the way it was meant to be. Love doesn't always leave one with warm squishy feelings dose it. Thank you.

Jannel - Yes, it was a typo. I meant to say "sickness". I have went into the piece and fixed it. I hope you still like it after the change. Thanks!
