If true love has such spiritual dimension
then I trust that someday it will find me
and as I wait
I ask myself
all the questions sitting
impatiently on my mind
reflecting on…
courtly love
forbidden love
self-love
storge love
and of course
divine love
those so deeply in love?
for example...
Romeo and Juliet
knowing such intimacy exists
yet never to bring them
to their union as soulmates
a love
forbidden by others
knowing
it was to lead them
to a death of a sinister kind
they did it anyway
because they were in fact soulmates
thus, finding love
living happily ever after
isn’t just a myth
to those whom have experienced
such love?
I myself do believe
after all
surely
even just to experience
that spiritual dimension
for one single moment whilst I breathe
makes the loss so much less painful
eternally giving it
it's very own pedestal.

OK, confession time. I remember you told me before, but I couldn't remember it here, so I had to resort to google to figure it out. But a fantastic poem Teddy. It puts words to my own thoughts on true love. 🌹

On the subject of love , dear Teddy you have it buttoned up. So many beautiful poems you have penned, and another here. You have included Romeo and Juliet, that tragic pair in this offering. Such an elegant piece of writing. You ask yourself all the questions and many others ask the very same. Have a fabulous weekend dear poet.
Thank you dearest Cassie58 your warm charm is most felt on my pages, happy weekend. 🌹

Thank you dear Andy. 🌹
Love as a word in English is such a complex word. It can mean so many things from passion to adoration. It is ambiguous and covers so many emotions. Very nicely written in first person making it so much more personal. Lovely no pun intended.
Thank you so much dear sorrenbarret, always wonder what you think of it all. 🌹
You have the gift of words dear Teddy; finding them, arranging them in the most pleasing way, bestowing them with emotion, so that they leap from the screen in this beautiful ode to love, placed oh so gently on that pedestal.
Dear Bella, thank you so much dear friend. A subject very close to my heart. 🌹 ❤️
