Love

Do you know what it is
when love becomes more then a word?
Do you know how it feels
that every word you ever told and said
even think of
can’t explain that feeling you have
that you want to say so badly?
Do you know that
love is not only a word
not only a feeling
but more?
Do you know I am in love with you?

    The idea of an unspeakable word is incredibly powerful. I also like the ambiguity of who it is that you actually love. It lends an air of mystery to your poem. Just remember, love needs freedom to survive. Keep up the good work.

    This word has always amazed me because I want it so badly but have no idea what it looks like! This poem was amazing to read because it’s very heartfelt! It gives me a sense of hope and truly shows how important it is!

    Thanks for writing and I wish you the best!
