People Say That Love Is Pure.

Poeple say that love is pure.
Does it purify? 

Can love filter out
bad memories of
the broken hearts
they left in me? 

Can love re-open
all the doors
that i've closed
one time before? 

Can love shake the numbness
from my skin
and fix the state i've
been left in? 

Can love bring smiles 
from my frowns
and stop the tears
so I don't drown? 

Can love shine light 
into my eyes
and soften the mood
when making goodbyes? 

Can love revive
the life i've been given
and repave the road 
that i've driven? 

Can love purify
my heart? 
If so, when does 
it start?

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
