can love be found
in a world of material things?
where wedding means fancy
and everything means IG-worthy
can love be love
if it does not come from above?
will you live out love
where none of you is a gentle dove?
would love be pure
when our intentions are now impure?
corrupted and lured,
how does one be cured?
can love be selfless
when one is selfish
could we love passionately,
when nothing lasts eternally?
can love be Godly
when affairs start worldly?

a lovely, searching write
I couldn't help trying to scribble
a little poetic reply
thanks for sharing and inspiring me
dear poet:
(love, is so simple
it is us that complicate everything
love, is a straight forward equation
its:
chemistry, safety, peace, arousal
divided, by
integrity, willingness, determination
and hope
if anyone, equates
to such measurements, then
they have a budding potential
for introducing love, into our lives
we merely need to water our connections
and wait to see
how strong, a stem
can be formed out of nature's, gifts
and obstacles..
that's love, divine or earthly
it's all just haphazard opportunity
actualised by effort, into our reality
the rest
is all, romcoms and buttery popcorns
on winter's nights, all alone)
lol
