What is love?
Love is rare
Love is a unique feeling
Love is the reason why we are all here
Love is a glue that unite us as a nation

What love should be!
Love is supposed to bring us happiness
Love was not supposed to be hard to find
Love was not supposed to be based on anything
Love was supposed to be spontaneous
Love was not supposed to be scary to get in
Love was not supposed to  have eyes

love in our generation!
Nowadays love is based on looks and
wealth
Love has low rate compared to hate
Love is now something to play with as they call it 'entanglements'
Intimacy determines love
Love is taking life's of our loved ones

WHY NOW LOVE IS LIKE THIS?

alexa
there are so many of you
that i would love to sit down with;
maybe over a milkshake and a plate of fries;
and just talk.
i want to ask you about the boy that hurt you,
about the anger you feel deep inside
over a father who said he’d come back...
and then didn’t.
i want to run with you through pages of words and say
“oh that’s right, what a lovely metaphor.”
i want to see all your smiling faces and
thank each and every one of you for showing me kindness,
for saving my life.
i want to collaborate on novels of poetry
and laugh with you through the tears of our pasts.
so until we sip those milkshakes and eat those fries...
thank you, to
some of the most beautiful people i have never met.
to all my HePo followers/friends/ fellow poets! you have all given me a beautiful escape from Life <3

The first time I laid my eyes on you
I couldn’t help but wonder if you were heaven sent
Because you made my heart rate to rise above normal
And it told me to not waste anytime
To see your grin
And to hear your voice
And those two rudiments
messed up with my mental
Made me to hallucinate
When I see my imminent
By just beholding through your glittering eyes
In simple terms I mean
I loved you at first sight

why do i love you?
this question keeps on popping on my mind
and i think i have several reason to explain why do i love you

maybe is because of your walk
because you walk as if you are stepping on ice
but what will happen when you get crippled?
that means my love for will fade away

maybe is because of your voice
because i think your voice was made to cheer me up
but what will happen when you become voiceless
my love for you will fade away also

maybe is because of your sparkly  eyes
which in them i can see the man i should be
but what if you lose your eyesight due cataracts
my will love  for you will evanescence

maybe is because of curvaceous body
because i think god spent all those seven days creating you
but what will happen if you become shapeless
so my love fade away

so then it came to my realization
i should not have reasons to you
because reasons do fade away
so i love you because i love you

The first day we met,
You asked for a pen—
One that wrote your name on my heart.
Since that day, my heart rate soared,
And as months passed,
You’re here, but not with me,
Only a piece of my soul remains.

Liking you would be an understatement,
For what I feel is richer than gold.
The reason? Your smile,
It makes birds sing a beautiful melody,
And your sparkling eyes
Reflect the man I aspire to be.

A magic pen,
Mending two broken hearts,
Helping me regain faith in love.
You are my fascination,
The reality of my imagination. 🥺
