What is true and real,
eternal love
happening instantly, spontaneously
Is it automatic

Or

Is it a feeling, and emotion
ever growing
derived from dedication, determination,
inspiration, faith, LOVE

A Feeling

Built upon from a foundation,
a steady beginning
by two people who love,
care for each other

With

Passion within, chemistry between
two individuals
with a strong desire to work together
to have love last, forever and eternal

Un-dyingLove

It really is no mystery
The word you seek is chemistry
Just how it works is any guess
But tells you true who you love best

I like the vulnerability you've put in your writing lately.  KJ

The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

I believe it's a little piece of God Himself
planted in our soul. With out it we feel and know nothing!
JMHO...;-)

Good question!

sigh.

I shall consult the cards.

Just a sec.

Hmmm.

Well that was depressing and a tad too personal at that.

I'll let ya know when I find it, ethel.
But for the life of me, I dunno why you are asking, smile--YOU seem to have found the answer!

Heather, the last parts of the poem are what I personally
think "real and un-dying" love is...

Thank you, Ken. I'm glad you liked it.

BTW, after all the many mistakes I've made in love
relationships, I have learned that even though there
is chemistry to start with, the flame has to be kept alive
for the relationship to last. I believe that can be
accomplished by doing the last parts of the poem. But,
bothe parties have to want it to work and have to be
dedicated to each other to keep the passion alive....
Thanks for your comments, and I like the poem in your reply....

That's right, Kitty. With God's help, love can be real
and eternal...... He can put the determination and dedication
in the hearts of one to make it work....

Karen, I wrote this because of some replies I read on
other post. I do believe that after all these years,
and all the mistakes in relationships, that I have finally
found the answer.... I believe that no matter how
much a couple love each other, it will not last eternally,
or be a Forever Love, unless both parties really work
at it. One dedicated person can't make the love stay
alive. It takes both and they do have to begin with a
Real love, before it will grow......

It is what you let it be, as soon as you try to control understand or define it it is marred

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Ethel, I wish for this love ever so much, and I thought I had it but Joanna said she never even loved me which I know was a lie! (wipes tears) She even said someone of her own for so long and now I'm sad that it will be so long before I ever find a girl who truly feels for me like I feel for her and doesn't hide hypocritical facts in the attic of her mind! (sad sigh) I wish for this love in your heart to be true and to last forever, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Ethel, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
