My Poem “Love is…”

Mark Hastings Poetry , , , , , , , , 
Love is like light -
sometimes it blinds you...
love is like being struck by lightning -
sometimes it shocks you...
love is like a river that takes
you along for the ride...
love is like finding somone who is your reflection
and the more that you look at them you realise
that you are in-sync with them
in heart, in soul, in body, and in mind...
love is an ocean of waves of emotion
that take you high and low...
love is a feeling that is easy to show...
love is a reason to live...
love is a reciprocal cycle in which
all you want to do is give...
love is what is unexpected...
love is what is tested...
love is what never dies...
love is what refuses to say goodbye...
love is the dream of the lost...
love is what can thaw
even the thickest of frost...
love is real and is not a myth...
love is the missing piece of the puzzle
that completes, as well as reveals,
who someone really is.
