Deep in the heart

0 posted 2002-01-15 03:36 PM


the doctor is in
list your symptoms carefully
love’s in the balance
~*~
now breathe in deeply
exhale all your fears and woes
love must be fearless
~*~
let’s recall your past
see it in ev’ry detail
now let it all go
~*~
love must be careless
not to say reckless or rash
just free from baggage
~*~
you must learn two things
accept the love given you
and reciprocate
~*~
unconditional
that describes the perfect love
no reservations
~*~
you cannot look back
nor look over your shoulder
nothing there for you
~*~
stand up straight and proud
carry yourself with great pride
look love in the eye
~*~
and when love looks back
let not your firm gaze waver
and love will be yours


Fool, said my Muse to me, look in thy heart and write.

Dear Poet, these words of wisdom will go right into my library. Wonderful as always. Chris

Very nicely done.  The form is evident but it flows beautifully independent of that.  That's so hard to do.  You make it seem effortless.  Good job!

Interloper...My friend and I were just talking about unconditional love. So, this poem struck a chord with my heart and soul. Perfect love casts out fear according to the Bible...wise words that you've accentuated in this poem.   ***Ivy Rose
