Vision of Love...

Love should remain unspoken,
It's given and felt by the heart.
Expressed love in material form,
Will not follow when you depart.

Promises will be forgotten,

And passion will fade.
All the gifts you have bought,
Do not matter when you are dead.

Love transcends boundaries,

Beyond the physical realm.
If you truly love someone,
Their death won't overwhelm.

Love isn't possessive;

It's meant to be shared.
Fear is just a hindrance,
There's no need to be scared.

Love freely and boldly,

And expect nothing in return.
When faced with disapproval,
Respect your lover and learn.

Your goals are important,

And your lover should assist,
Not to dictate nor direct,
But provide you strength to persist.

Life, after all,

Is a chance for you to grow.
Love all that you can,
Before you reach six feet below.

nice (:

but is love just a feeling? just something felt in the heart?

why can't it be spoken? why can't it be expressed in other forms?

Thanks!

Love is an emotion, and it can definitely be expressed in other forms. I'm just suggesting that if love is based on objects then it will not last.

i would like to put forth the idea that love is an action.

one, by loving another, willingly sacrifices/gives up one's rights/comfort.

one, by loving another, respects the other's decision.

one, by loving another, goes the extra mile.

p.s. feel the love from HK! ;P good day!! (:

Thank you for sharing your perspective, and good day to you too!

It prompted me to do some reading and reflection, and I realised that love is neither an emotion nor an action.

This webpage echoes my thoughts: http://worldwidenation.com/love.html

I suppose you are referring to biblical love: http://www.markandlauraward.com/blog/?p=781
