Love




You have modified my feelings,
You have modified my thoughts...
You have changed my expectations
... my perspective of life

What is real?
What is a dream?
What's conventional love?
What's romantic love?
What's legal love?
I don't know, and I don't care.

Love is bewitching .
It creates fragrances in the air .
It turns stiffness into passion,
And embellishes everything around.

Love and hate are the only two things that can change us. Both can be positive or negative. I hope all your changes are positive.

JStar said...

I agree with Gregorio, but you cant hate someone unless you do care or love them in some way...There is a thin line between love and hate...

This is beautiful, as always Dulce...Love changes us into people we never thought we would be, sometimes for the good or the bad or it makes fools out of us...but "Its better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all" I love that quote :)

I endorse this completely. It is bewitching and definitely embellishes everything around including the one in love. If I could only wear love, I would do so gladly.

Joy always,
Susan

DD, you wrote, "I don't know, and I don't care."

Well, I also don't know, and I'm not concerned with those questions. Rather than define the word love, I would prefer practicing it, or just to "DO" it.

Nice post, YOU, and great topic (love) which begins before birth, and lasts beyond death. Often there is lots of it between birth and death.

(Love also has the ability to hurt, to heal, to change Peeps, it is THE most powerful entity in creation...maybe it IS Creation!

That photo of you is entrancing. I really like the necklace...grin!

Beautiful xxoo

Nevine Sultan said...

Sweetest Dulce, what can I possibly say that hasn't been said? You've said it so perfectly? And "I don't know, and I don't care" says it best. That's how we are when love is there. We're impulsive, compulsive, don't step before we look, don't think before we speak, don't stop and allow things to happen slowly. We want it all. And it wants us back! Beautiful words, so simple and true, my dear! Keep writing!!!

Ileana said...

Love is bewitching, unexplicable....and yes, it changes everything for the better! I'm in love with being in love!

Beautiful poem, Chica...just beautiful.

Ileana said...

...or is it inexplicable?? Hmmm. Dime si lo sabes. :)

Angeles said...

Love is love in all its forms.
Always beautiful as you.
Besos:)

Opaque said...

I agree with JStar. Very nicely written! Keep them coming!!!

Dulçe ♥ said...

No cariño, no lo sé.

I don't know much about love any more, or do I?
I thought I did and I am still in love with it, yes, with Being in Love... But- it's the passion what I really like and I like writing about it and it's so full of contradictions to me that it'll hopefully give me food for thought and reasons for writing for a very long time!

Hugs to all you commenters, followers and friends... I am delighted.
:)

Sylvia said...

I totally agree: no definitions. Yesss!

Stephanie Fey said...

To be in love with contradictions is no bad thing - I think it's the surest way to properly start understanding life. And what better place to start than by understanding the contradictions in love.

You've got us all thinking again, Dulce!

Es sentimiento, con todos los adjetivos que se quieran, pero fuerza que mueve la vida.-. saludos

Dr.John said...

Lust does all that as well but love is so much more.

SILVIA said...

¿Que tendra el amor que tanto inspira?
Bellisimos versos querida mia.
Mil besitos!!!

Nikki (Sarah) said...

what a great description. Awesome. Sarah

1ManView said...

The definition of love is different for everyone, because it comes from within ones self worth. you laid it out beautifully, which can only mean you have a inner peace with love..

Josephine said...

We evlolve as the life goes...
Beautiful!!

G-Man said...

Love would be much more alive,
If described by Dulce in a 55!!

Caroline said...

Oh yes it does...changes everything...

Beautiful!

Shadow said...

love is inexplicable...

Beautiful words. Glad I stopped by :0)

island of peace said...

so adorably true :)

Indi said...

I think that we all experience love in what ever form we see or feel it. Yes love is love like birth is birth and death is death. It's a living breathing wonder but when for whatever reason that love dies... it leaves a stain on our souls, so deep that we forget what it was that first brought us to life, to love. You write with raw emotion, I think you have much love to give... uncover your feelings, let them see the light of day.

Very good indeed...

RNSANE said...

You speak of love so well for all of us. Love does take possession of us, doesn't it? We sometimes become irrational, forgetting reality at times, throwing caution and practicality to the winds!

Dulçe ♥ said...

Oh let's this be comment #40!
My first time!

Love you all!

steveroni said...

Congratulations! I got 3 comments. 38 more and I'll beat you (Oooops! make that 39!)

Just kidding!..But SEE? You Are loved by so many--and your work is respected by so many. You are a worthy poet (in English!!!), don't let ANYONE --including yourself--say otherwise.
