A Long Poem About Love

A Long Poem About Love

Does this mystery sublime

take away the darkness of our lives

transport the soul to heavenly places?

sweetness and light and kept promises

are they found on love's hallowed premises

in the arms of another,

can walls fall down?

And make the act of breathing in and out,

suddenly wax profound

is the past forgotten,

sadness become down trodden?

but, one step at a time

for a poet is it the ultimate foundation

to coagulate random thoughts

to a place of artistic revelation?

is the genesis of a muse found;

like an epiphany taking hold;

magic falling to the ground

is this love?

does it make the heart beat faster;

steals the thoughts

feeds the soul with laughter?

possesses dreams

has the taste of pistachio ice cream?

Suddenly, can a selfish self absorbed man

put his wants aside

surrender to the whims of a woman?

moved by attraction,

taken my chemistry

are you guilt free

to play on the hallowed grounds

of intimacy?

In this magical wonder world

Is making love not 'fucking' any more?

Is the mind soul and every hole

Given away forever?

is this love?

Is it a feeling

to have and to hold

breathe on the skin

like a hallelujah!

Nirvana

awakening?

in the words of the poet Bob Marley

'...is this love, that I'm feeling?

I love reading your comments sis.  sorry about the swearing, I'm attempting to stop and not sure why I started in the first place; habits are like that I suppose....yes I don't understand the overuse of the word love, and I'm guilty of that also, and certainly I don't understand what the world calls love....real love to me isn't even an emotion, but a principle, only God can really give us the capacity to love for He is love,  without God we cannot love, we are selfish carnal beings; at least I am....what human beings call love is just a watered down  version of 'real love'  and I don't believe in the categorization of love either; Agape, and the rest...the human love I speak of in this poem is a feeling motivated by needs and emotional hunger wanting to be fed or getting fed by someone or some thing; love is a generic term....I value your comments Cherie, the poem is more of a vent than anything else, I'm not trying to persuade anyone to believe anything all are free moral agents...cheers

wolf, I appreciate you saying that bro. but nothing I write is 'better' than anything you write, different yes but not 'better' I got no control over this genre, stuff comes to me and I write it down; I shouldn't have to edit but sometimes I still do; my ego wants me to believe that I have something to do with what comes out in reality I don't; when I try to write something I end up staring at a wall like a zombie lol, then out of the blue a write comes in my head and I feel like I have to take a piss, lol...I was venting with this one, mad at myself for a lack of maturity in my outlook on the subject....let's go to Europe Eddie, walk the streets of Paris let the place speak have a few pops....you like Bukowski hey Eddie?  yeah the man had something, a cynical truth with a beating heart, I love his work, he left a great legacy for writers; 'don't try hard'  he once said, something like that not sure of exact words....cheers pal
