A box of love : Love Poetry

written by Poet : blue-rose


 

They put love in a box tied-

with pretty frilly expectations.

 

Filling them with flowers petals, thorns.

Thinking it's more than it is- putting

loves hope in unrealistic expectations.

 

So, many being disappointed,

with human imperfections.

They divorce, hurt- breakup, start again!

 

Putting love.

in a pretty box of chocolates.

 

Filled with fondants of silly dreams-

They fret, fume and scheme.

 

Doing thoughtless- in anger-

Violent, strangling acts.

Killing for what they call love.

Willing to die, for what is not

Real love-.

 

Some expect gifts, diamonds, and rubies

Sapphires.

 Have trysts and affairs,

 Losing trust-

none having trust.

Never patient enough,

To earn it.

 

Looking- always looking.

 for  the better lovers.

 

Not realizing the waste of time,

it is to love, when they are not loved back

wasting their lives, on others.

Putting unrealistic love,

in a box, that isn't loves real reality.

 

Some think it's a game, their love.

It never grows up,

Believing in some fancy version

Enacted in a television

Movie box -

 

 

A powerful dream, marketed machine.

Connived, convince, con.

 

Some can't cope from too much

thinking love.

 –perhaps love is nothing more than a

 a pheromone!

Just an unrealistic box of chemicals, genetic make up

Composed by a grand design

To mate- and stay together

As one-

Love a commercialized,

shipped packaged in a tidy box.

Most,

bail= out during  the hardship.

Of reality, day to reality

of the day life sinks in-

 

Romanticize, fantasize,

 thinking its candy

So easily made,

Dreams of love

They so in love with love-

 

Waiting for

 Love that falls out of sky

Unwilling to compromise-

 

Thinking karma brings them soul mates

Instead of understanding its hard work-

 

Seeing fireworks, from romantic eyes

Thinking they will find

A pawn and win check mate

 

Putting love in a box that real love

Can never live up to, they dream of

Love none can achieve

 

From over expecting- not real love

Feel sorry for those who put love

In a decorated box, filled with empty

Flowers, chocolate,

dreaming of-

Pretty empty, fairy tails

 

They end up alone, buying

Their own pretty boxes of

Flowers, chocolate, jewelry

Things- dying alone in a mental

 

Ship of schemes

 Waiting alone

Until they find someone who

Is never really good enough

 

To start love, again- again

Most the time living alone

Waiting for love

 

Over romantized

Marketing love

in a box.

o6-o9-2008 sorry I didn't have time to do all the punctuation on this one-

but I felt it was an emergency download—needed online.

Just a note to my readers- rarely do I worry about perfect form on the internet.

Since we do this for free- and the final draft is always edited later.

Please bear with me on that. I know they have mistakes sometimes

Thanks for reading!
