Poem : What is love ?

Love is a letter
Deeper than a number,
Love is a fountain,
Higher than a mountain.

Love is a bet,
Love is a quest,
Love is a test,
Love is the best.

Love is the beginning
Of believing to fully be living.
Love is a gift far from a curse
Just like a shift for a re-birth.

*

Love is not a transaction,
Love is a grand passion.
Love is a beautiful painting,
A blessing of mixed feelings

Love is a fight for light,
The time of your life,
Love is infinity,
Love is our destiny.

Love is you and me at ease,
Priceless happiness for real.
Love is homecoming,
Love is awakening.

*

Love is natural and mystical,
A magical sign like miracles.
Love is a sweet sacrifice,
Our stairway to paradise.

Love is fire, love is higher,
Heart building, not heartbreaking.
Love is overcoming fears
And still pursuing your dreams.

Love is against all odds
Trying to find God
And merging two souls
Into one world that feels home.

*

Love is hard, love is art,
Love is your deepest scar
Connecting your shining star
To light up your other half.

Love is children playing
Like 2 diamonds glowing,
The lover, the richer,
The partners, the winners.

Love is perseverance,
Love is a renaissance.
Love is pure, love is true,
Love is you & me loving you.
