My love…
What is it about you my love?
That you come uninvited…
Filling my empty heart
Overwhelming my senses
When I searched not for you…
What is it about you my love?
That I want to break into
A dance, a song
A smile for everyone,
Thinking of you…
What is it about you my love?
That the colors and hues
Of my dreary world
Intensify to a riot,
Vibrant and intense…
What is it about you my love?
That I hold on to your hand
Never wanting to let go…
Wishing every moment
Never flitted away…
What is it about you my love?
That my desires and passion
Soar like an eagle
Reaching newer heights…
Exploring new dimensions in me
What is it about you my love?
That with renewed vigor
I embark on this journey
Of life, filled with strife
Without fear, without doubt…
What is it about you my dearest love?
That enwrapped in your arms
I feel rested and peaceful
At last…
Rimly,Your poem raises questions which don't have any answers :) Love is an enigma, a magical experience and the most fulfilling emotion.We can just be in love and enjoy every moment, savor each day and live life happily.Loved your sweet and love-filled poem.
ReplyDeleteFor a couple of weeks now I've been reading about love...being in love... what is love... Geez! I wish I could catch the fever and allow love to melt me that way...
ReplyDeleteI've been reflecting about this over and it's so wonderful to feel loved...to 'feel rested'... secured and 'peaceful'...
And I have to open my eyes to the many wonders this Lover brings :)
I love this Rimly! I wish to read more of this from you :D
I am loving your posts now....they hv happiness...warm feeling of love n togetherness....aah i love ths line..wt s abt u my love....:)

What is it about you, dear Rimly?
ReplyDeleteThat you pen such nice poems constantly?
-PORTIA
Rimly: You describe love in ways that surprise and intrigue me. Love getting to know you through your lovely love poems ...
ReplyDeleteThat love comes into our lives when we seek not... I seek not as I want what comes to me in full beauty....
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Sulekha. Love is indeed an enigma.
ReplyDeleteI am in love with this one...When you fall in love, it is a temporary madness. It erupts like an earthquake, and then it subsides. And when it subsides, you have to make a decision. You have to work out whether your roots are become so entwined together that it is inconceivable that you should ever part. Because this is what love is. Love is not breathlessness, it is not excitement, it is not the desire to mate every second of the day. It is not lying awake at night imagining his kisses. For that is just being in love; which any of us can convince ourselves we are. Love itself is what is left over, when being in love has burned away...Yesterday, I thought I loved you as much as any one person could love another. Today, I found out that I was wrong and love you even more..Beautiful Rimly..Just as you are.
ReplyDeleteMelissa my soul sis, love will come to you when you least expect it and you will be swept off your feet then. Thank you
ReplyDeleteYes Mani what is it about love....thank you for your comment

ReplyDeleteYou write such beautiful love poems Rimly!
ReplyDeleteOnce again, Rimly, you sweep me away! That's exactly how I felt when first falling in love with Danny. :)

Falling in love is very different than the love that builds from there, you are so right. Both are such wonders. Beautiful poem.<3
ReplyDeleteSomething sweet again from you Rimly.
ReplyDeletedo your dip your pin in honey to get these sweet lines? god bless rimly a Queen of hearts

ReplyDeleteWeakest LINK
Rimly it is the search of the heart that forever seeks..." What is it about you my Love"...I felt in this poem your journey into the understanding of "Your Love"...who are you, what are you, where do you take me? Will I recognize you? The loneliness within the search...will you lead me to the love I seek? The ups and downs along the way...yet empowered by Hope. The memory of the heights and euphoria of the soul, once found is forever embedded in your heart...craving to be felt and held again...in the other worldly embrace of Love's Arms...holding your heart within the dance. Never lost, only on the horizon, waiting to be found again...absolutley Beautiful...from the wisdom of a Heart well lived. My dear friend...Always..
ReplyDeleteA very passionate poem!
ReplyDeleteThat my desires and passion
Soar like an eagle
Reaching newer heights…
Exploring new dimensions in me
Lovely words!

ReplyDeleteThank you NJ for visiting and commenting
ReplyDeleteVaisakhi I agree with you. Love is a mystery. Thank you so much for your comment
ReplyDeleteLOL! Debra thank you. I guess being a romantic I am always in my element when I write love poems. The other one is an imaginary one!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely. My heart smiled as I read this journey, the prose tripping through highlights of happy moments. I think we would all aspire to such a relationship that evokes that soul deep sigh of homecoming, security and contentment. Beautiful! <3
ReplyDelete- Dawn
Thank you Dawn. We all look for that kind of a relationship but I guess not all are that lucky
ReplyDeleteI have to agree with what sulekkha said..."Your poem raises questions which don't have any answers :) Love is an enigma, a magical experience and the most fulfilling emotion."
ReplyDeleteWow...such a beautiful poem. Love is so big?!
Very well done. Ah, the questions...but a lifetime of love to find the answers. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteThank you Amy. Yes love is big and one can never understand it but only feel it

What is it about "Our Loves"
kisss
Jessica
LOL! Jessica if I knew you would be the first to know. Love you
ReplyDeleteSigh... I have asked these questions a time or two myself. This love should be bottled and given away for free. We all would have a million smiles to share. :-)
