Yeah, all you need is love. "Love. Whether it warms your heart or burns your house down, you can never tell." "You are beautiful, no matter what they say, words can't bring you down." I found this written on some randoms book in music, sorry if it's long. "A professor gave his class of ten female and ten male students, a sentance: Women without men are nothing. He asked the students to punctuate the sentance. The men wrote 'Women without men, are nothing.' The women wrote 'Women! Without; men are nothing.'" Good poem Lor. Loved the irony as always. Beautiful. Courtney. I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad. The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had. - Gary Jules, Mad World. |

Iloved this, I think, because I know EXACTLY how it goes for the first time in my life. And you described it so well. And it'll drive me to a knife once in a while, but I think it's worth the pain. You've got to weight the good against the bad, see how they balance, and then make some adjustments. That's my way of doing it anyway, if that helps any?

geez girl i envy you so much, ive tried writing this one so many times but yeah never worked but of course you wipped out the goold ol' irony and made it so "LOR"! im in the situation you wrote about and have been for so long. "Love will carry you through any difficulties" - this was in a fortune cookie i got.... i read it then burnt it. "Love is my ultimate weakness" - way true everything you wrote applies to me so much... love and empathy (For empathy can save us all) darkness nirvana means freedom from pain, suffering and the external world. |

"the one thing you can't handle the only thing that makes you feel so ugly the thing that makes you insane makes you drive the blade into your flesh Yeah, all you need is love." This part is cool and sums up love in my eyes, its confusing and god its hard. I can relate to this, well written hun.

love is neither black nor white, it just is. i loved this poem and your point of showing both the ups and downs of love, that to have love is to have everything and nothing at the same time. p.s this kept reminding me of Moulin Rouge just because of the song line you decided to use, which is always a good thing. |

amazingly gorgeous !!! it sums up the two sides of the feeling we call love...the good and the bad, the ugly and the beautiful. your wordd truly capture how something that seems so great and turn incredibly sour in an instant..in just a matter of a stanza... |

(edited-profanity-Ladycat) *speechless* dude, that was so brilliant... soo soo soo good. if you could improve on anything though.. ..i would suggest retitling. it gives a cheesy impression, on a brilliant, uncheesy poem. lots of love, Kurst Pride is holding your head up, when everyone else has their's lowered.
