What is Love
What is love?
Everyone is trying to define it
Webster can’t touch it
People can’t surface it
So why try to define something so....
Deep
So sensual
So... undefined
Love is like...
You want to describe it
But no one can hit love on the bulls eye
Love can be like anything
And it still won’t describe my feelings
Why describe it when it’s so...
Unimaginable
So unexplainable
So... indescribable
Love
People will put it as an emotion
But do you really feel it
Sometimes they will use it as a verb
To love someone
Hm what does that mean
Others consider it a noun
To have love
Almost as if you can hold it in the palm of your hand
Shape it
And mold it
Do with it what you would like
Love is metaphors and similes
And fragments
Of somebody's heart
Love is...
Love is...
Well love
Can’t be labeled
Or defined
Nor described
In fact now that I think about it
Love is just love

Fractured light on searching
The crescent moon
suspended
like a pendulum
in the sky.
It starts to swing in sync
with the tides.
Always changing
but constant
Love is light
that burns inside
A glow of warmth
reflected on the face
Love makes you feel light
burdens aside
the world
I'm not sure what love is anymore
but I'm pretty sure I still want it
I want a warm embrace when I come home
coupled by a

This thing called Love
Shares the taste of sweet bitter emotion
A shoulder to lean on
Unconditional devotion
Then again
