LOvE is PerFeCtiOn

the saying that nobody is perfect

is this true?

maybe

but if you put two people together

who are madly in love

that my friend is perfection

love can turn a frown

into a smile in a millisecond 

like love 

perfection has always been in pairs 

love is exciting

love is daring

love is refreshing

love can pick you up

from the deepest of depths  

love can take your hand

and hold onto it forever

here is my heart and a key

save it and lock it up

just for you and me

love is this

Wonderful poem :)

I would tend to say Love is complimentary, not perfect. Only God is perfect. Perfect means nothing added to & nothing taken from. But great job on it..

To be honest, I am not accustomed to reviewing "love poetry" because it often results as a generic spin on this emotion. Perhaps, love can be described as perfection, but it only exists in the perception. Within the poem, you have approached a philosophical question as to how to define love. However, in my own interpretation, it cannot be defined by a simplistic and singular definition. I apologize if I sound as though I am preaching, but it is the honest feelings that arise from after reading your poem. In a sense, I do not feel as though the poem approaches every category of love which I would include: romantic love, family love, and friendship love. I also do not feel it has challenged the reality of love, but it did capture the "butterflies-in-my-stomach" feeling. The most appealing line that I found was "that my friend is perfection." From the way I have interpreted it, I feel as though you would consider the love partner as a friend. I would agree that love is a deep friendship with the person you are in a relationship with or classified without a label.

Overall, I thought some aspects of the poem were genuine especially since you have expressed your emotion. Also, I hope I do not sounds so harsh with criticisms. I appreciate your optimistic view on love, and optimists are welcome:D

Cute. Your one of many I know who try to describe "love". I like your definition. I especially like the ending "Here is my heart and a key, save it and lock it up" And keep it to themselves
