What is love? Is it a statement? No. <br />A form to be contained inside one's soul <br />And sheltered from the world, forced to fly solo? <br />No. Love contains your soul, love makes you whole. <br />Like waves crashing upon cliffs as the wind breathes <br />Its soulful tune, then draws back the watery wall. <br />It repeats, again gracing the cliff-side eaves- <br />Love's as calming as the tides constant crawl, <br />Brought about by the changing phases of the moon. <br />Yes. It's as beautiful as the pale orb's sky. <br />Star strewn, it glows despite Earth's night-time gloom. <br />Love lifts you from darkness and helps you fly. <br />This much can be seen when viewed 'from the shelf.' <br />It must be something else to be there yourself.<br /><br />Ellie Sutton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/what-is-love-152/
