Romeo And Juliet

Love is not won by conquest,
        But by love.
If you really love someone
        Don't force her
To go against her nature.
        It's by far a disaster.
Don't wait her speak first,
        When she's most helpless.
She will be moved by compassion,
        And anger later.
He who initiates love most
        Receives the love he deserve.
Love shared by two
        In war and peace,
Is the most epic of all
        Ever written in a love story.

Hello Hugo, I agree with the second and third lines. If love is forced it is not real love. This will be my fav. much love here. /Darlene/

Hello Hugo, A true bond in love will last so much longer than a hostage kind of love. Your welcome. Much love here. /Darlene/

Hi, Darlene. Man is free moral agent. He has the freedom to choose. Real love is a consensus of two hearts, not forced, but by its own volition to come up both to an agreement. If it's one sided, otherwise, it's a hostage kind of love. In the end, both hearts suffer, and it's a disaster. Thank you, Darlene. I love you more./Hugo.
