What is Love? (Free verse) by edgar-allen-poe-rox

What is love, an emotion or thing? What kind of feeling does it bring? Is it always “Happily ever after?” Or is it a tragic disaster? What causes it, and what is it for? And why isn’t it romantic anymore? Is it young? Or is it old? I don’t know, truth be told. Is it good, or is it bad? Am I happy? Am I sad? Does it bring sorrow? Or great delight? I think it’s both. Unless the match is right. “Hold me closely hold me tight. I never want to leave you’re sight.” What is love, an emotion or thing? I really don’t know, so please tell me.

My suggestion would be to focus on non-rhyming poems that have alot of stuff like metaphor, simile, and imagery. Read alot of poetry and books on the art of writing so that you know what the tools are and how to use them plus you'll learn what not to write like cliches for instance. Most of the people here are happy to help you so long as you're willing to except that criticism is a must for learning any type of art form. So bite your lip, learn from your mistakes and consider the advice that others give you and soon you'll surprise yourself by how good you've become.

Ps. Don't call anyone names who hasn't done it to you first or soon you'll find that no one will want to read your poems.

Good luck young buck.
