Defining Love

Defining Love

Is love complete forgiveness
Compromising one’s self esteem?
Or a two-way street where
accountability is something to redeem
 
A voice in need to be heard
Stubborn and so sure
Love is deeply embedded
But not in the light always so pure
 
Is love official as written
in documents ratified?
Surely actions are louder
than words spoken and justified
 
Love is not an official object
or a pawn played in a game
Love is ethereal, intangible
Like the air and there is no blame

I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose. Thanks for checking it out. Christine
