Not a rhetoric but a feeling
Not an emotion; a way of living
Not words but tears.

Love defined:
The slow intense look
The kind unspoken care
The immense pain at small hurt

The hand to catch tears
The smile of encouragement
Not just for a special One
But for every individual

Stroke the cheek
Hold the hand
Gently but surely
Reach the soul.

Love defined:
Not words, not feeling
Not emotions, not a lifestyle
Not being, but reaching

This was very well written. And I would love to say that I loved it, but it brings me a pain that would take colors to explain.

This I have written, not through the joys of love, but through burns and scars.  I'm glad you appreciate this poem.

Not emotions, not a lifestyle
Not being, but reaching

Those lines were my favorite~

Not everyone has the same definition,
but yours read much like my own.

I felt this and I thank you.
