Love is light, they say.
Love is the feeling of weightlessness,
Of never wanting to fall back to Earth.
For me, Love is pain,
Love is the feeling of sorrow,
Of hoping for something that never happens.
For me, Love is a dream,
Love is a feeling, unreal,
Of a concept whispered in the shadows.
Love is waiting around the corner, they say,
Love is meant to find you when it will,
So it is special and pure.
For me, Love is out of reach,
And find it if I may,
But until then it is but a dream.
Going back to my writing roots (that most of you probably don't know exists). I wrote a lot of poetry freshman year but that's died down a lot since then. I actually generally write ABABCDCD style poems, but this one just floated out of me.

Yes, I only write poetry when I'm emotional. Unfortunately, a cynical look on love has been pervading me lately.

For those critics, I'm not speaking of familial or friendly love. So let me be in my corner of forever-alone :P
