Love Is... Poem by Sister Frances

Love Is...

Rating: 5.0


Is that a Love poem?
Let me write you one
Mine is from the heart
No clever words spun

No Images of nature
Magic or the thrill
Yes Love is beautiful
Yet it wounds to kill

For Love he lifts you
Your heart soars up high
Just don't forget the days
You fell so low and died

You want true Love
It all boils down to
Is that person making
You a bettter You?

Truer words were never spoken! When I was going through my spiral notebook which contained the most recent poems I've posted, I found something I'd written on 5th October,2013. Because it so perfectly lines up with the last 2 lines of your poem, I will share it here: 'Different people have the ability to bring out different things in you, to influence your personality and character. As long as what they're bringing out in you, and the direction you're growing in, is GOOD and not BAD, then the relationship is worth keeping. ' In other words, if you don't like what you are becoming under someone's influence, then maybe it's time to leave. Very good poem.

'Is that person making You a bettter You? ' - Yes, when you are in love, you usually area better person. Love cleanses your heart. Nice poem. There are three 't's in 'better'. You may like to chop off one! :)
