Love

Love

A Poem by Ian Faraway
"

A cry of desperation

"

Love

With it’s many question

Accompanies everyone in life

Whether they like it or not

 

Love

Something that has an age requirement?

I say NOT

An emotion shouldn’t have a law on it

 

Love

In today’s society

What’s lust…and what’s love

Is getting harder to contrast

 

Love

The one thing I’ve felt that was real

That made me feel alive

Only to be rejected by that person

 

LOVE

You cannot stop the emotion

It will consume you

Into a deep ecstasy which you will not want to escape

 

LOVE!

As if screamed from a mountain top

Give me your heart

And I will share what’s left of mine

 

LOVE!

A strange torture

One which one does not want

But need!

 

Love me

That’s all I ask

For it’s your love I have strength

If I don’t have it, I will fade

 

Love

Will be the end of me

The end of my sorrows

Or the beginning of a new found misery?

 

LOVE!

LOVE

Love

love

 

That’s all I ask of you, my love

Hi Dakota. I think the real problem is that today love is only seen in one sense, when traditionally there were 4 kinds of love. Agape, Phileo, Storge, Eros. Eros is the only one that most people today seem to think of when they think of love. It is the erotic or sexual kind of love. Agape is the "godly love" or the love that acts and shows itself through it's actions. When you love someone you are willing to go to lengths to make sure they have what they need. Phileo is the love of a cherished person, a friend, a soul mate of sorts. Then there is Storge is the love of family, between parents and children, siblings and between husband and wife if it is a good marriage.
