"One word frees us of all the weight and pain of life. The word is love.”
~ Sophocles, Greek Poet
Oh, Love. Where travels thou diminishing shade?
This is not the path I hastily bade
nor the future I envisioned made.
Now, oh Love, I feel thine essence fade
as old hung tapestry worn and frayed
that is, in finality, to storage laid.
Oh, Love. Art thou listening to my plea?
I am selfish, I want thee near to me.
Hear me, please. I beg of thee.
Stay thou ground and do not flee.
Let’s build a life together, may we?
Or is our forbidden love not to be?
Alas, thou died and love is done
and in my hands I cradle the gun.

cute love, future, i love you, love, romance, romantic love, true love,
One day we´ll be far away from here
With both our minds oh so clear
Hand in hand we'll walk down the street
And then I´ll give you a kiss on the cheek
“I used to dream of you,” I’ll say
“When you were still so far away”
“Yet somehow here we are,”
You’ll say as I’m wrapped in your arms
Alas, you’re still not here
But I have faith that soon my dear
That I will see you and you’ll be here

FALLING IN LOVE
That lingering punch felt deep inside
Not so much a slip but a sudden drop
It’s like a helter-skelter fairground ride
When in love, the heart does a flip-flop
Almost scary but causing a wide smile
Wishing and hoping that it’ll never stop
Intense feelings keep turning up the dial
It was said that it would happen like this
And the brain loses control all the while
It’s very real with no need of any artifice
And it all starts with that one special kiss

Layman’s Lyric
I pray you don't perceive me as obtuse.
My purpose is not solely to seduce.
You could call this as clichéd as it sounds,
The love I bear you knows no earthly bounds.
Alas, reciting courtly, pretty prose,
Is frankly not my forte, heaven knows.
Mere mortal am I to your goddess state,
I long for your love to become my fate.
It's said, albeit not so very well.
With fancy phrases I do not excel.
I can't write like the witty have before,
Just know you touch me to my very core.
So, tho' I have not sweet warm words to say,
Will you perchance accept my love, today?

first love, loss,
A minute
An hour
A day
A little yellow house
A life envisioned
Previously forgotten
Recently ripped away
Pieces to be collected
Never shared
Healing alone
Fated to wonder
Will there be a day
When the thought of you
Passes without tears
by Makala Schnablegger |

cute love,
My mind is overcome
Words I crave
Yet cannot give
Your attention fickle
Mine constant, unyielding
I would give the world
For you to look upon me

beautiful, love, truth,
You are a thing of great beauty,
both infinite and discrete.
You set your sights on someone,
and the light that follows you,
It shines on them now, too.
Love, you whisper to them,
It is not a sin to be forgiven.
Your power becomes their power.
When they taste the world again
It is your hunger that drives them.
And as you let their lips discover,
they become the greatest lover
that this poor world shall ever see.
Their power becomes your power.
I am a thing of great beauty,
both infinite and discrete.
My power became your power
My soul gave you speech.

desire, love, lust, sexy,
A landscape in shadows and an earthy taste on your tongue.
The only distance between us is the very air that we breath.
Desire grows like some winding vine around my body-
feral, unkempt, and as dangerous as this night.
I belong to you, is whispered as the light leaves this land
And darkness dissolves all notions of restraint.
All coiled serpents must come unfurled
when this language of love is spoken.
As I feel a bead of sweat drop from your skin down to my waiting tongue
I cannot tell if these are your words, or mine.

appreciation, art, black african american, black love,
You capture me with your radiant smile
Hearty bold laugh impassive and vexing
Little grey hairs in your barely there beard
Needling your chocolate chin for years
Your artistic style and fashion sense
In a suit that could pay purple rent
Of course you write and to my delight
You include me in the story of your life

love, spiritual,
To become the flame,
we must agree to dissolve,
in the void of nothingness.
Love in love with love,
for the sake of love alone,
revels in its own fragrance.

I love you earnestly,
That it takes my breathe away.
I love you passionately,
That it clouds my sight.
Honestly!!!
I love you fiercely,
That even my heart can't carry the weight.
But, unfortunately
I gotta let go of you

devotion, for her, i love you, longing, love, together, true love,
Little thoughts and notes we write
A wish good morning, a kiss goodnight
Between us two, no one can see
Nor can by anyone perceive
Don't ever feel you have to say
Or put your heart out on display
To me, I'll love you anyway
Someday we will, someday, someday

love,
When my door was left open
That’s when you had your opportunity
to find me in darkness
“Are you sure you want to come in?”
Maybe you’ll see,
Maybe you’ll see...Me
Come on in!

But your betrayal
Left me hurt, as for me

I wish you can escape from that big storm.

My shodow is with you by your side.

Heart Cast Away
The heart, once cast away, is left to wander in the vast expanse of time, searching for solace in memories that now seem distant and surreal.
It's profound journey of healing, filling with moments of heartache and longing. Yet, through it all, the heart remains resilient, slowly finding its way back home. In the midst of pain, there is always hope, and eventually, the heart will come to rest amidst familiar comforts, ready to begin again.
