Not a love poem
Writing about love should be easy. It is all about expressing your most positive feelings.
The words should be flowing like the water of a cataract, the satisfaction and happiness streaming like a tidal wave.
It is anything but...
Writing about love is a form of art and as far as I've experienced art requires a great deal of effort.
It demands each word to pushed out of you like the birth of a child.
Hard, laboured, breathless work.
Performance that leaves you tired and empty.
This is writing about love.
Unrequited or not, romantic or troubled, happy or difficult
Love expresses itself like the water of a broken dam, sweeping everything in its path and claiming it forever as its own.
KISSES!
