What never grows old
Can you think of something that never grows old?
Even this world that we’re living in grows old.
Even TIME for that matter grows old.
But there is this something that never grows old.
It could transcend through time but would never grow old.
Have you ever seen an aged couple walking at a park
With fingers entwined,
as if they are still at their younger years
Sharing life together as one.
Have you ever seen old couple at a restaurant or food place
Sharing one plate or one glass.
Pretty odd isn’t it?
To younger generations this is pretty awkward to see.
But for those people sharing that something in common between them,
It is something very special, very unique.
It is something that money can never buy.
It is something that cannot be traded for anything.
Yes, it is LOVE.
Love is the strongest emotion, the greatest feeling,
The most important thing that God implanted
to the hearts of all his creations.
Love knows no bounds
Love is timeless
Yes, Love never grows old.
A seed can grow into a huge tree
And every fall it would shed all it’s leaves.
But after some years of standing there
Deep rooted on the ground,
It would one day die and wither.
But definitely not with Love.
Love is something unexplainable.
It is something so magnanimous.
An impeccable feeling that no body,
No one could ever defeat nor destroy.
No one could ever suppress.
Even the malevolent shadow of time
Turn to gray,
Love is the only thing that will remain fresh,
Beautiful and precious.
To a heart filled with love,
This feeling is simply eternal.

Its simply superb, and i agree completely with your views.
ReplyDeletei too write poetry as per my wish, i dont follow any style or any thing. i prefer letting my feelings do the talking.
if it reaches others then its successful, if it fails to reach others then it is a failure.
thanks for liking the poem. your writing is simply fantastic, wont you translate what you have written in your mother tongue?
wish you the very best,
trisha
I knew the answer when I read tht title. Love unconditional. The second verse and its imagery are the root of the entire poem. You are correct in mentioning how a younger generation, even mine cannot see or maintain an unconditionality of love in a relationship. Perhaps romance is dead, although I refuse to give up on it. I might mention I adore your music, as a musician I am a huge fan of ballads and Journey was an expert of writing them, I might also add the Eagles of which I grew up listening to. I thought that was Tori Amos I heard but it is Mandy Moore. I will be downloading the James Blunt album.
