You must be a professional writer, or if not, you certainly have a gift for it. Your phrases are very phylisophical, and deep. As a human, you're right though, we get to the point that nobody else can "hold a candle" to our one true love. Good terminloogies used.

I think,there must be a seperate state of poets where there is only love,poetry,inspirations,feelings etc.every one talk to other in poems .Poets muat have thier own imaginary world.

True, endless love? Absolutely yes!\n\nThe poets sing and the philosophers dream, and we mortals aspire to that highest grace -- love.\n\nPure, absolute, unconditional, undying love ... \n\nI found my true love -- my soul-mate -- and I shall love her to the end of my days and unto any world to come, no matter what. We have thus far crossed many distances and hard paths while our love grows more all the time. I will walk through this world with her, and even if some cruel design of fate should take her from me, she will still forever be my only true love.

Don't make you write a poem, don't force yourself. Wait a while, and keep your eyes open, let the world inspire you and then write about something you're interested in the title should come easily then

Definitely.  My grandfather was a tough, former military man who was straightforward and strict.  As we both grew older, we developed an appreciation for each other and I discovered he wrote poetry.  He wrote one for me, "My Legacy".  It was his way of expressing things he had a hard time saying verbally. It was personal but applies to life in general, generational shifts and the things/people that are left when we are no longer on earth, our everlasting legacy in human form. This was one of the last things he gave me before he passed and I have every intention of it being read by family at my wedding.

well--those are interesting answers-- and not completly wrong -but mostly--(this is my simple view of course) \n\nas for the poet and their words on thoughts of love(which they say they have printed many times).I can only say i understand what you are saying, but feel you may have missed a subtle point and ,therefore,somewhat mistaken.In poetry -a metaphor is used as symbol not the actuality of the absolute -nor is a similie a perfect match.So,often one's thoughts and writings have meaning and form ,and even truth of belief.However,they do not contain the truth in whole or as an absolute.\n\nThe rest are simply snippets of thoughts mostly brought out from a subjective view.However, they too contain their own (subjective)absolutes of truth,just as a poetic(or lyrical) expressed want or need ,or for that matter ,a non-desired want or need .A subjective absolute--is not complete, nor  can it be, without first perceiving it on its base form.\n\n So,what is the base form ? First you have to place its point of origin.AS for Love it seems to be a Human trait,which we in turn give to others and also place onto other creatures and various forms of life which are to our liking.\n\nAS a word it exists;as an emotion we connect it to the word.And,as with many words, it is something we give and recieve within our own various ways.Therefore,it can not be an illusion nor non-existant.However,it could be something disguised , which in many ways it is and shall always be for many a good(and bad) reason.Nevertheless,I do not believe you to be wholeheartly wrong or in any sense of the word in a complete or utter state of denial.There is substance in words and emotions,just like those contained in actions\n\nI think if you see it more as an extension ,and not an illusion per se of the mind ,it may be easier in this way to view and draw to a conclusion a simple, yet difficult absolute and truth : the validity of love and existance or not.\n\n   I shall leave it there. with love or not.In form and extensions.metaphors and similies.\n\ncheers

I love poetry, but it's not a status thing for me. It's more to do with beauty and sensitivity. If a guy is sensitive and has an eye for beauty I'd date or marry him. :)

Wonderful poem.\nDont do what you suggest though it wont have the effect you will be hoping for. My suggestion is to talk to her and tell her you wrote this poem abuot her and recite it. Good luck

He is talking about the truest form of love, the union between two souls, spiritual union.  Check out the website I've attached.  It will take you through the poem line by line, explaining it.\n\nGood luck with it.  I've always found John Donne's poetry a bit heavy for me.

I write poems do to how enigmatic my emotions, and my mind is, it's so complex, and I write poems to express my feelings( when I write poems.)\n\n\nThe force of the tranquil ocean\nCalms all but one\nThese elements create a potion\nGelid harsh coldness surrounds us\nEarth relentlessly hardens\nThe only escape is on my bus....\n\n\n\nThat poem expresses many things, and has many double meanings, see if you can find them, I even made some rhymes.

Read it. How does it affect you emotionally? Try to relate to the poem. Then, just do the grunt work of memorizing. When you get stuck, try to remember how it made you feel and that can lead you to your next line, etc.

Some people think poems are exciting\nBut I am not so good at writing\nwords or lines with meter or rhyme\nI try but have a real hard time.\n\nI don't know why, but it could be\nthe fault of someone else - not me.\nI'd rather learn the capitols of nations\nor practice difficult calculations\n(or even memorize quotations\nand names of different rock formations)\n\nMy thoughts are not quite in alignment\nbut I have this dang assignment\nSo I'll sit down and think about it\nmaybe write one, but i doubt it
