Love is…… (Triple Triolet)

 


Love is all about compromise
Knowing when to give; when to take
There is no need to dramatize
Love is all about compromise

No matter how I emphasize
Forget not what’s really at stake
Love is all about compromise
Knowing when to give; when to take

Love is all about forgiveness
Knowing who deserves; who does not
There is no need for bitterness
Love is all about forgiveness

No matter all your eagerness
Forget not to give it a shot
Love is all about forgiveness
Knowing who deserves; who does not

Love is… you standing by my side
Knowing I love you; you love me
There is no need to bury pride
Love is you standing by my side

No matter what; fate will decide
Forget not these words that I plea
Love is… you standing by my side
Knowing I love you; you love me

    I hate this.
    Because its beautiful.
    Because my love story didn't work out.
    Because it made me remember everything I've been trying to forget.

    Excellent

    Love never has to say "I'm Sorry." Love is never hurtful only by accident.True love never fails only falls into a rut in the road once in a while.

    i'm glad i read this

    you know, i'm glad i read this. i'm coming on my 2 year with my boyfriend (well, in a month), but we're in a rough patch in our relationship.. this piece is a great reminder for anyone who is entering, leaving, or committing to a relationship that love isn't as "complicated" as people think, it's simple. the complicated part is how you manage those feelings towards your special someone. reading this poem reminded me that bitterness is the last thing i need to feel, it can only damage our relationship.. thank you for sharing.

    I was just reading up on the triolet and trying to get up the courage to try one myself. I'm glad to see a good example, thank you. Maybe your days of being a chick magnet aren't over yet...as far as the writing goes
