[hometext] => I wrote this poem 6 years ago. It has found new meaning in life for me as time has gone by.
[bodytext] => In love I fall with others
in love I strive to live
In love I take contention
in love I do forgive
In love I hold my tongue
In love I must speak
If i will be a righteous man
In love I must keep
Love demands that I must go . . .
Love demands the words . . .
Love demands the works of love
Love demands to live . . .
Love, it is a silent voice
some don't want to hear
If we want to find the truth
true love will appear
Love, it is an obstacle
Love, it is a plight
Love overcomes unrightesness
Love, it lives in light
Love tells others it is hurt
yet love lives in love
love sets a true example
Love demands true love

You wouldn't be trying to make me cry, would you? : )
Some people know the essence of true love, and it would seem, you are indeed one of them. You tell it how it is, and should be, and the way you wrote this, really drives home the point. Very well done. I like this write alot, and the timing couldn't be better!

Love is just that, don't mess with it, if it aint broke, don't try to fix it.
Now then.. what is love.. if we just let love be love, we are the ones who tear it down, mentally, physically.. just go about your life.. love is there.. its just, we can change up our thinking.. we hurt ourselves...the true love lies in Jesus..that is all I am going to say for this..
I like your poem.. great job..

Love is made of a thousand things
Love is what makes the heart sing
Cups of coffee in a quite room
Firelight dancing chasing the gloom
A voice you feel you have always known
A hand reaching out for your very own
Love is tears often followed by laughter
True love is happy ever after.
Beautiful Archie love is about compromise and all the things you wrote.
Love Angelxxx |

Very interesting. If Love where to demand anything, this would be it. Too often love if not seen as it is, and I think you have painted a good likeness to it here. Thank you.
Take care.

It was worth sharing six years later.
I wish I had your ability to write so much.

| Wow Archie! It's been awhile since I've read some of your stuff and I'm sorry about that but now I see what I've been missing. This was truly an incredibly write. You can envoke such emotion over the topic of love in this poem it makes me want to call up my love and tell her I love her in ways I haven't before. Great job man! And while I have you here, I might as well tell you...That my real name is Darnell Brown and I am the author of “City Limits”, a poetry book that I’ve written (go to www.citylimitsthebook.com to check out my site, there’s a place where poets can get their work posted exclusively on their own page and maybe dedicate it to someone) One of the reasons I posted this message is to let you know that I’m starting a magazine called “When The Pen Hits The Pad” and it’s going to be a place where artists, by that I mean more than just poets but writers, scriptwriters, painters, photographers etc. where they can have their work out there for people to see and possibly put them with people who can help them get to where they want to go. If you are interested in being a part of our first issue, send me and email to thewordzwithin@yahoo.com and tell me what you think and what you want to summit Tell all your friends who might be interested and keep up the good work!!!!!!! |

I thank God for you Archie... =)
...and this is love... not that we loved Him, but that he loved us and gave His life for us. He did this so that He could be close to us. He did this so He could show Himself to us. He is the Way of Truth, Righteousness, and Life... the Way of Love. We love because He first loved us. And this is His command: that we love one another as He has loved us. And His command is not burdensome, for everyone who loves is born of Him and knows Him, and they overcome the world. Whoever does not love, does not know Him, for God is love. Who is it that overcomes the world? He who knows that Jesus is the Christ! Jesus said, if you hold onto my teachings, you are really my disciples. Then you shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set you free. Behold, what manner of love the Father has lavished onto us, that we might be called children of God! Unless a man be born again, he cannot enter the kingdom of heaven...
(from the writings of John, a messenger of Jesus Christ)
Peace be with you,
Joshua |
