That is love...#poetry


When you aren't afraid

to have unshakable belief in yourself

that is love

 

When you aren't ashamed to adorn your style, your personalities

Even if they are unusual, old-fashioned

that is love

 

When you embrace both your sorrows and joys

your collection of hurts, your boxes of thoughts

with gentle hands

that is love

 

When you find yourself jostled and falling into a dark place

And still know, that all you need to bounce back

is to sit by yourself and sip a cup of coffee

that is love

 

When you can listen to the symphonies of your heart

and trust them to decide the rhythm and the melody of your life

that is love

 

At nights, when you gaze up at the stars

And see your name written in their glitter

that is love

 

When you dive into the ocean of yourself

and discover something that won't abandon you ever

that wwould stand by you for ever and ever

that is love

 

When you spend endless hours

programming deprogramming your mind, like a cosmic engineer

Because you will always choose the best for yourself

that is love

 

When life hurts you, or people

and you decide to walk away, because you understand that you can only love people, you can't save them

that iis love

 

When times get tough and situations harsh

but you keep going, you don't quit

because you know your greatness

that is love

 

When it gets too noisy and swarms of  echoes invade your peace

when ghosts of people from your past try to disrupt your innate joy

and you continue to look within your heart

shining your light

that is love

 

When you set yourself absolutely free, let your crazy, poetic self just be

when you aren't scared to dance like nobody's watching

that is love

 

When shadows tap on your shoulders trying to stop you

and you look in their face, smile and keep walking

that is love

 

When you aren't afraid to be afraid

yet you dwell in fearlessness

that is love

 

When you know that your mind can make you sick

and still have faith in the power and wisdom of your heart

that is love

 

When you invite your fears, your griefs, your worries and shames and pains

and cradle them and kiss their tears

not shoo them away

that is love

 

When the pages of your notebooks rumble and burst with the bizarre stories and fantasies of your creepy life

and yyou let them be

 Without trying to change them

that is love

 

When you aren't shy to seek out those you can share your life with, those you can cuddle or laugh with

and still understand that if there's a place where love springs from

its oonly and only your own heart

that is love

 

This, the one that you see in the mirror

that is love

 

you, my friend

is love

yes you....love
