Love Story

Inspired from and dedicated to "Love story" written by Erich Segal

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

"Love story"

 

 

Where do I begin to tell the story,

Which is still shining with its glory.

Story about how pure love could be,

It's all about Oliver Barrett

And Jennifer Cavilleri.

 

 

It's about the love she gave to him.

And even created a ray of hope,

From the light so dim…

 

 

Met as strangers but soon came together,

Since for them love was above all religion.

Struggled with parents and their situations,

As their love was reality not an illusion.

 

With every step they together fought,

Even against that of god.

And finally created a world of their own,

But gradually dusk conquered their dawn.

 

And Jenny…oh Jenny! Why you left him away,

Oliver only prayed to god for you to stay.

But you left him alone for every night and everyday,

And I've no answers but this much I can say…

 

True love only comes for once in anyone's life,

Which could melt even a frozen heart's ice.

And Oliver, he will never be lonely,

Because he will always cherish the love that,

Jennifer gave to him.

And with this much love,

Who could ever be lonely?

 

Love doesn't have a happy ending as it never ends,

And its feel is impossible for anyone to mend.

True love is one of it own kind,

Because love is somehow really blind…

 

Love is deeper that the depth of any ocean or sea,

It never vanishes but still its feel no one could see.

Love is so vast and with extreme measure,

And could bring springs in autumns pleasure.

 

Love is what happened between Oliver and Jennifer,

As it's immortal and always going to stay there.

 

 

And this was their sweet love story,

Which taught me that-

"Love means not ever having to say you're sorry…"

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

I wrote this piece for the contest "Make Erich Segal(the author of Love story) proud"
As, I'm a great fan of that story and thus this is just an attempt to draw some of the emotions of the story.

And I thus dedicate this piece to Erich Segal :)

You have captured the tender essence of love here and the beautiful "Love Story" told. I really like how you brought in the book's characters and brought the story back to life....
"Where do I begin to tell the story,
Which is still shining with its glory.
Story about how pure love could be,
It's all about Oliver Barrett
And Jennifer Cavilleri "
...Excellent poem with story references and quotes used so wonderfully throughout.
Your writing captures the joys and pain of love...I'm sure Erich Segal would be very touched by this, as I am!

This is a really beautiful poem. You captured the essence of "true love" and it's immortality - regardless of the struggles & pain that it brings. I love the line "Love doesn't have a happy ending as it never ends" Definitely an original thought. Great job with this!

Well done on this piece. You said that you wanted to bring emotion from the story, I believe that you did just that in a beautiful way. Love doesn't have a happy ending as it never ends. I love that line! Thanks for entering this poem in my contest. Once again I loved this poem and I plan on reviewing some more of your work.

You are a big fan! It's evident in your writing. It is one of the most Romantic films ever, isn't it?

[Ruby Moon]

but its a lovely piece...bittersweet
somehow as i am reading the poem some sentences make me think of the song "Where Do I Begin (Love Story)"

[Golden]

I agree with others that it's really hard to re write any popular write in such a poetic and beautiful way..
Great work dude! and congrats for winning the contest..
Very well deserved

[Roxy]

congratulation on winning the contest.
Your work actually brought tears to my eyes and I got flashbacks about the time when I read that story.
And it thus made me nostalgic..Your writes are always full and deep and true emotions which always make me wonder
Brilliant piece!

[Imperfection]

What a wonderful tribute.
Congratulations.

I read the story some years back and I don't think I'm going to read it again because it made me very upset. Since then however, i have read a lot about the story.
And this is one of the best pieces so far.
You've touched upon every detail so well.
Great write.
