Love sees even through the darkest person
yet they say that love is blind
they say that love sets your heart free
but somehow love strips you of your freedom
Love as we know makes us happy
but love can easily turn us to the road of depression
they say that love heals broken hearts
but ever wonder where this broken heart come from
Love completes a person
but why is it that a person in love is never content
Love can make a person alive
but love can kill you brutally when it leaves you
They all say that when you fall in love it is forever
... Yeah Right...

yes, that's how it goes:
all the possitives are when love is here,
and when its gone, the negatives take over.
but whats the alternative? death? lonliness?
its all a revolving door,
love comes and love goes

Hey Shaolin- fellow newbie- I just wanna say that your poem described my life to a T. That was really the truth if I ever read any.
Keep it comin'.

Candii,

I have bad luck in the love department also. I used to say to an ex those infamous "I will always love you" words, but I really don't believe in those words anymore. Good write here.

(big hugggsssssss) This is so very true, dearest friend, but it is not loves fault necessarily, it is more the provider and we must take deep heart into it to understand what is love and what isn't! (sad sigh) This is powerful, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet friend, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Love is far from perfect,
but close enough!
