To Live and To Love

To live is to see see all that you want To want is to love if love is all you can see If you want to love see if love is all you want Once you find the love you need then live for the one that you love Love each other for each other’s wants and needs Live life happy together because if you lose your want you will lose your need If you lose your need then wait to see Eventually you will lose all that makes both of you unique With everything lost No more wants No more needs There will be no more life yet to breathe

Matt, a lovely poem, I like the repetition of words and lines.. love can be forever, for me I had only one true love and although he exists now in a heavenly realm, our love is still a strong bond, some think that is wrong but I cannot break the thread that binds us _Constance

I sincerely feel the same way about having that passion, love and tranquility towards the one’s that make us happy. If we are able to find the one that makes us a better person and brings out the you in you then the love does last forever. Ones souls love with deep admiration towards another can never be broken as love is the truth that binds us all together as one
