True Love Contest

Is there such a thing as true?
Love exist no questions asked
Yet is true really real?
Love is essential and necessary

I guess you can call it, True Love
There are many types of true love
I love your outfit and new shoes
That’s the truth but is it True love?

Love encircles the world, that’s true
Instead of true love it should be
Truth Love for without the truth,
How can you have true love?
 
Love is not complicated, you just love
We have over loved and lost it’s meaning
We love cars, colors and clothes
Combining them with human love

We cry if we lose our house in a fire
That can be replaced
We cry when a loved one dies
That can’t be replace

We have confused the true meaning of
True love and man made things
This is the truth of what true love really is
It is: 

Human love for one another

This poem is an absolute bullseye, sharp-shooter! (I would say that I just LOVE it, but someone MAY just object). Bravo, Bobby! Best wishes, always, Gershon

Yes it is sad, the word love has lost its meaning somehow in today's world and often or always perhaps, we think it comes from the heart, I believe it all starts with our brain, and the when our heart starts beating like crazy, then we can say we are in love with another human being. Blessings my friend Bobby and good luck in the contest. Blessings, Jennifer.
