The Beauty Of Love Is That It Is Not Intelligent Poem by Ghada Shahbender

The Beauty Of Love Is That It Is Not Intelligent

Rating: 5.0


The beauty of love is that it is not intelligent.
It is free of restraint.
It is free of fear.
It is free of calculation.
It is magical and unreal.

Only in love can one let go of the need to control
And allow for complete submission
Submission to passion and emotion
Submission to that which is natural and instinctual

Love is the state of ultimate freedom.
A freedom we feel
A freedom we lose if we try to understand.

I am going to drift away with this naive beauty
Happy that I feel it
Hoping that you will one day break through your self imposed imprisonment of intelligence

The beauty of love is that it is not fearful.
The beauty of love is that it is not intelligent.

This is so true and yet so hard to make people understand Ghada! Intelligence can be a curse, as I am starting to find with my boys....there is a lot to be said for the simple life, uncomplicated by exterior influences. Just love, nurturing your family and survival are enough for this tired of trying to break through the confoundedly difficult barriers people errect. I love your style and look forward to reading more of you, Tai
