Greatest Love Poem by Melissa Ferrer

Why is it that im in love
Oh and not just any love
Im in love with love
the very idea of love
The very smothering concept
The very life it breathes into my soul

How is it that im falling in love with love
when i dont believe in falling in love
Love is just a 4 letter word
or at least it should be
It should have no feeling
Nothing but its imprinted meaning
In the socialite conservative Dictionary

The idea of love makes me weak in my knees
It thrills me to seek whatever i please
The flames fired up and
My heart beating down
The walls of my chest
and turns it around

so if i wish to love a love so great
even though its something i surely can not take
if i wish to love a love so whole
that i may go against what ive been told
If i am to love with all of my heart
someone that is apart
from me
Theres something i must first do
Remove something from the shelf
Put it in me and embrace it
and thats the love for my self.
