Love Is...

User Rating:

  Love is...

Love is feeling cold in the back of vans

Love is a fanclub with only two fans

Love is walking holding paintstained hands

Love is.

Love is fish and chips on winter nights

Love is blankets full of strange delights

Love is when you don't put out the light

Love is

Love is the presents in Christmas shops

Love is when you're feeling Top of the Pops

Love is what happens when the music stops

Love is

Love is white panties lying all forlorn

Love is pink nightdresses still slightly warm

Love is when you have to leave at dawn

Love is

Love is you and love is me

Love is prison and love is free

Love's what's there when you are away from me

Love is...

Adrian Henri

The part i like most, and that i find most true:
'love is a prison, love is free'
This one line alone describes exactly what i define to be love.
Well done on a poem composed from the heart!

Love is what happens when the music stops
that is a good line. good job. love is everything you said I think, but really I dont know I have not found him.

I Love this poem - sure its not going to be to everyones tatse but sometimes you can make things too complicated and this for me says it all.

interesting, most definitely, interesting....

the way love is shown is close to many but not to all so im not sure if this poem can reach to all levels, however it is very well structured and aimed at that physical aspect of love....

'Love is feeling cold in the back of vans' I agree there! lol... I love your explanation of love.. but it's more than physical
