What Is Love

i want
to kiss her electrons
caress her protons
what is an atom
love is not a statement
love is not a contract
what is love
is it the recognition of souls
is it the fulfilment of wants
i really dont know
please teach me if you have
i am lost in the sea of love
like a kiss which falls
a leaf which falls on the soul
i dont know
love is an emotion i guess
i am incomplete
when i return from my sojorn
when i kiss her unborn dreams 
i really dont know

A new and original angle on an old subject. Impressive. Had to let you lead me along a path to I did not know where. I was powerless to stop. Best regards David in NZ
