Love Poem
I sit in the dark
And I ask myself
What is love?
What is this intangible thing that haunts me
I wish i could touch it
Embrace it
Whisper to it
And let it know
Without it humans are nothing
We kill for love
We steal for love
We hurt for love
We live for love
I figure that love channels itself
you know?
It doesn't just appear
It breathes itself into others
Into our lungs
Up to our minds
down to our hearts
Encases our souls
When you can say
"I love that person"
You have hit the point of no return
Because those words
Those beautiful words
Aren't supposed to flow with the wind
They are supposed to tie us together
Bind us to that other person
This is the meaning of love
Not "I love you because you love me"
Or " I love you because you're with me"
Because love is unconditional
Unpredictable
And unrelenting
" I love you because.....I can't finish this damn sentence"
Love is, in a word, wordless
