Eros-Philia-Ludus,
Pragma!!!
Valence released,
We are like atomic bonds,
And I am the Squared Hydrogen,
She's the Oxygen.
Held up together in the field,
She breathes life into me.
And liquid as we flow,
Solid we remain just equivalent.

There are different kinds of love
Each with a special bond of love.
Philia is for friendship and a special trust
For secrets shared and secrets kept a must.
Eros is for passion, lust, and physical needs
Where sexual fantasies and desires are freed.
Storge is natural love of family, children, or kin
It is a lifetime of affection that seldom truly ends.
Agape is selfless love beyond daily concerns
For the strangers with nothing to return.
In what kind of love do you abound?
In what kind of love do wish for now?

A sacred secretion wells up in the deepest of depths.
Hearts melt at the mere pronunciation of the word love.
Circumscribing human strengths and weaknesses at all lengths
Love permeates the earth and the highest heavens above.
Sympathy, empathy, companionship, consummation
Eros, Philia, Storage, and Agape... all encompass
The core of love—that's the true universe of compassion
Within which the rhythms of the sun, moon, and stars come to pass
It's not my will, but the will of the other dominates.
In love, ego is erased, like a dewdrop by the sun.
The weakest of weakness, love within it accommodates
Neither one is great nor one is smaller than anyone.
Each little petal peeled from acts of love is marvellous.
Lawless can be love's laws, yet they are never barbarous.

I'm wave-surfing on the crest of the waves of love,
Philautia, philia, agape, storge, pragma,
Above all, the divine love that comes from above,
Which blazes me, with a warmth, warmer than magma...!
On one side I feel cool calmness caress within,
On the other side, I come across with power,
Am I changed? Am I, like a fish, breathing with fin?
A vigor and mighty force, on me, does shower...!
A magnetic vigor pulls me from all around,
It's, indeed, a heavenly celestial feeling,
Have I, in a magical middle world, got drowned?
In me is going on restorative healing...!
I am out from the waves; the energy, yet, rules,
Earthly and heavenly dynamism ever pools...!!!

You are not just a word but a warrior
A messenger faster than a courier
Silence run away in your presence
It knows your strength when you push a barrier
You able to brake the ice between strangers
Like rangers
They unite against life dangers
In the unifying bond of love they become one
Hello unlocks possibilities of engagements
Like a sweet melody it fills the heart with joy
Remember meeting your crush for the first time
Hello striked bright like lightning in a dark sky
Hello opens up passages leading to the heart
And make it receptive to all form of love
I mean passionate love-*Eros*
*Philia* love of friends
Not forgeting *Storge*-love of parents for their children
But most importantly *Agape*: love of mankind.
Hello make love possible

I was lost looking into your eyes,
I lose words when I'm talking to you,
It feels like wandering in a Jasmine field when I'm with you,
I've realised that poems are catalysts for our love,
There is a philia between us,
Which you don't see yet,
But,
Oh darling, don't worry I'll never give up on you.

Dark thrilling from Pragma into Padma,
My Agape all surrendered,
As Philia was knocked down.
Ludus and Eros were tightly handcuffed,
I was nurtured by the plur,
Crumbled for etcetera.

Amazing Agape
The immaculate Father Almighty
Soul redeemer, merciful and mighty
Wear His yoke upon you of humble heart
How to live, to love it's a magic art.
Do not touch what is unclean says the Lord
Turn darkness to light with righteous accord
Believers are sons and daughters out there
God will receive into His holy care.
With clean hands and a heart that's truly pure
We'll stand in amazing agape for sure
Ascend the mountain of heavenly grace
Search with birds eye view earths beauteous place.
All things wonderful are work of God's hand
Could anything be as grand as His land
All people on this wondrous earth that dwell
Care for all that the Lord Himself made swell.
A guiding light shining out there in space
Embrace amazing agape with fine grace.

Footnote . . .
In Scripture, the transcendent agape love is the highest form of love and is contrasted with eros, or erotic love, and philia, or brotherly love.

If you’re reading this,
A loud
Or silently
This I am saying to you…
I LOVE YOU
This I do,
Because Jesus does
And God also loves you
I love you
For you took the time for me;
And I love you because you’re made in His image
For I love you because you are my brother, my sister
If you’re reading this,
A loud
Or silently
This I am saying to you…
I LOVE YOU
My love for you it’s not a eros kind you’re not my wife…
My love for you not a ludus kind a playful love
My love for you not philautia a love for myself
My love for you it’s not storge kind you’re not my child
I love you philia in a brotherly way of the mind
Just as God and Jesus says
I love you agape why!! Cause I love you to and for your soul
I love you and thank God for you being created being born
If you’re reading this,
A loud
Or silently
This I am saying to you…
I LOVE YOU
Hallelujah
AMEN
I LOVE YOU

Now, Drink My Dear
I saw the answer in your eyes.
Before the question was asked.
Deepest hurt, pooled in your eyes.
And streamed down your face in tears.
The silence was deafening.
How could Life be so inextricable?
Two hearts in fragments with no aforethought as to this very moment.
Was this a punishment for the joining of two bodies in love?
A love sworn to be agape, or philia?
Our love that imprudently flamed into beastly desires.
A love that pelted us to depths that left us no oxygen to inhale.
Not one in this world could sustain the perils that two have fought.
And now death knell is eminent to our love.
One last kiss, which melts away all fears.
Now, drink my dear.

Fresh...novel - ingenuous in this nifty world of poetry
The congregation of well-versed and eloquent poets
Reflexion occupied and inhabited within your bosom
Comments - indited and penned by your hand,
Enunciated and explicated by your psyche
Behind of what is envisioned and construed
Philia augmented and fruited
Yielding the sweets in acquaintanceship
Not just co-writers
Not just gurus and advisers who meliorates and nurtures me
Competent as it can be
But buddies and intimates who're TIED UP
Great sophisticated poet - Nette
Words of heart so new -Nikko
Unbars the door of wisdom - Dr. Ram
Now,we've educed this bind - never loose...
