Love's Dilemma!

Love's Dilemma - A reply to a comment!
(To a Friend)

How does one reply to Love's dilemma
Tis I, only a fool, falling for an
imaginary love.

Does such a fantasy land exist?
The dream of a vision, the dreams of a Kiss!

Love is the curse of a fool,
for once one falls in love
they surrender their very soul!

To be whipped upon by loneliness and despair!
again & again.

Love, where art thou?

Visit me not
from your foreign shore.

Leave me not
upon your returning wave.

I wander searching
for this thing called love!

True love is the garden's "Rose"
of the world.

Once found it should be implanted
in one's heart to grow!

Never to be relinquished or let go!

I still cast my line
upon life's unknown charted waters,

To catch my elusive mermaid fantasy
of the sea and once netted,

Take her love home with me!

Dilema, oh please let me find my love and set me free!

Poet of the lonely heart!

Nice and realistic poem

I met a woman and after 7 months of dating
I said to her; I love you, her reply,
you're too sentimental. End of that romance.

'Rose ... implanted in one's heart to grow ...' so nice and so true !
Rose isn't everlastingly growing and blooming ... If it happens to be in our garden even for some years ( a limited time ) , shouldn't we be happy and thankful to it ? It has made our garden breathe and look differently .
Love is not an ordinary thing , as a rose isn't just a flower ,but a flower of flowers.
Thank you , JimEee for the nice poem !teddybear wave

A Rose is a Rose, is a Rose!

Oh Love to grow into a beautiful Rose!

To share it's beauty as it grows!

Oh Love, like a Rose, is beautiful too!

It breathes a beauty that glows within!

Beauty that glimmers in one's awaiting Heart!

It is a flower of flowers ...

Not an ordinary thing!

I like your "wording"

"A flower of flowers"
"Not an ordinary Thing"

My sincerest gratitude to you , JimEee !
Your poems are like a song leading us through gardens of roses, inviting to dance , bursting into tears ... They are just like Life full of sunshine and thunderstorm , light and darkness...

Poet of the lonely heart, as a moth you are driven to fire, knowing well you may perish in the flames of love.

"It is a blank wall,
an old wall -
a heart burdened by drought and clay:
write your name here,
but don't pierce it with nails."
("At the door of a lonely heart" by Abboud Al Jabiri)

Wish your Love's Dilemma is resolved to your lonely heart's content!hug bouquet

I knock upon an empty chamber door!

The chamber has no space for me
and I must go away!

I seek another, that has people there
one that I can explore!

Lonely heart beating on a blank door of clay

I beat and beat, why do ye turn your back on me

You always turn away!

Burned is the moth by the blazing roaring Flame

For me I am burnt by Loneliness
which to me is the very same!

Oh why! Doth this Loneliness ...
Oh! Horribly remain!

Marikia, my friend,

Thanks for your comments and the holding
of my lonely hand as I poem
the loneliness away!
