            Love is

What is love, could it be a myth,
Just a fleeting dream, a broken gift,
Or is it what you always miss
When you see two lovers embrace and kiss.
                  
Where is love when someone’s heart breaks
And fades away from the awful ache,
Could it be nearby in some sweet smile,
You can only find out if you look for awhile.
                  
When is love a tangible thing
Will you only find it in some dream,
Or will it find you some special day
Maybe if you stop running away.
                  
Who carries the love that you so need
For without it your soul just cannot feed.
Hopelessness will tell you to sit down and die
But please don’t listen to its lie.
                  
For loves all around us it’s easy to see
And how you look for it is the key.
Time and patience is what it will take
To find that one special, loving soul mate.

Truely spoken. Love can be a slippery thing but it's worth every slip and stumble once you get a handle on it.

The search is long and treacherous. But the pay off is one of million unbelievable sensations.
Good write

Tomorrow comes for those who fear it.
Today never ends for those who live it.

This is beautiful Bobby.
Very much enjoyed the read.

Now - while the leaves still dance on the wind
While the moon and the clouds come spinning
Will you whisper my name again?
Again...and again...
