We all know how to want But few know how to love To love and to want is not the same Stay here and I’ll explain To love is to endure tremendous grief To want is to enjoy the moment at brief The one that loves, its love it serves, and life it gives The one that wants never cries and never suffers And the love that it spreads is demise within the appropriate time The one who loves cannot think and everything it gives The one that wants neither cares to forget or forgive Wanting soon can finish But love does not know any end So I tell you friend We all know how to want But few know how to love Loving is the azure sky and bright stars That light -up the night It’s like joining the dove in its graceful flight Loving is total fullness It’s the sparkle in the eye That’ll never die It’s bliss in the heart And joy in the soul It’s the sea that has no end Wanting is the hunger that’s inside you It’s the adrenaline that flows through your bloodstream It’s a vanishing dream Is to have vehement sex, its to sweat Is to bite, is to climax It’s fleeting desire That one acquires So I tell you again friend All of us know how to want But few of us know to love |
This was such a good write the way you described love and lust. And you stated the difference. It is beautiful and it holds nothing but the truth. The comparison between hot passion and lust then love and it was a really good write. this is definetly going on my faves. ~christina | Posted on 2007-02-03 00:00:00 | by POETRY | [ Reply to This ] | This was such a good write the way you described love and lust.

You seem to have wisdom beyond your years. Great poem. lynn | Posted on 2005-06-13 00:00:00 | by lynn7 | [ Reply to This ] | I have to say that you express love in an intense way. This poem is imaginatively wonderful and holds the truth to such a fragile thing-LOVE. I love how you compared the passion of love to that of nature: "the azure and bright stars"-it seems as if love is beyond physical reach, but only those who can only truly understand it will be able to have the blissful heart and experience the soul's joy. Then you compared the common lust to mere everyday experiences-something that can't be soulfully treasured as that of love. YOu are truly a unique and gifted writer. Your questioning of love allows the reader to subconsciously think about his/her experiences and rather it is under true love or just plain lust. Wonderful poem. | | Posted on 2005-06-13 00:00:00 | by idlewriter | [ Reply to This ] | wow ive never read anything like this before. personally ive never been in love, i thought i was but it turned out to be an infactuation. the way you describe love and lust is so powerful. i loved it. i keep coming across your love works and i keep beoming more amazed at your pieces. i must say bravo. | | Posted on 2005-06-17 00:00:00 | by fiery_eyes | [ Reply to This ] | I think in order to love you must not only lust and "want" you must also want to love and be loved. Every person is different and some people are not capable of love. This point is very well expressed in the poem. I like how you concentrate on the tenacity and overall lovliness of love, but I think the poem would be more effective if you focused a little more on the negative aspects of love or false love even. Tying in the whole message love=feeling and depth while lust=indiffernce and in the end emptiness. | -Catina | Posted on 2005-06-23 00:00:00 | by Boom-boom | [ Reply to This ] | |
