That word again
Thrown like confetti
Poured like cheap wine
Yet meant to be precious
This word that's devine

Lips part and whisper
Some speak it true
To others it means nothing
To say I love you


Love, not the word
You could never describe
The emotion itself
Is a personal ride

So why do we spoil
Such beauty and joy
By overusing the word
We have begun to destroy


Real love needs not words
True love often is not spoken
Soul love reveals itself
When promisesare not broken

So tighten up the tongues
Of lovers as they utter
I love you to each other
As they spill them in the gutter

Keep a special word
Locked away for good
Only to be whispered
When completely understood

June~
How nice to see you~

Good write ... of course I have a 'little' bit of a differing opinion ... I actually believe that we need to say I love you even more and more and more~

Of course, it MUST be in sincerity ... and I find it sooooo easy to tell at least one new person a day I love you~

Of course, I work with children ... so it's real easy~

Well written June and I understand your reasoning, but I have to agree with Marge.  Love should not be banned because some people treat it lightly.  Love, Joyce

ank you both so much and i agree that love should be shown and given very freely but it must be given from the heart in ways that are true.
what must not be done ( in my eyes anyway ) is for lovers to throw the word at each other without knowing each other well enough and not meaning the words that are said. This has often caused heartbreak when one partner believes words that are not true.

woops sorry guys, gone on a bit there lol.
hugs june x

(sigh) Oh June, love is truly a word that has lost so much of its meaning for its over-excessive usage, and so many who truly say they love you really don't mean it and obviously don't know what love is and must speak it from the HEART for it to be true! (big hugggsssssss) Know that we all love you here and believe you are special, sweet friend, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet June, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
