What Does Love Look Like?

 

I often think about love.

I think about the shapes and forms it takes on.

And I believe it is all around us, even when humanity isn’t.

 

What does love look like?

It looks like the sunlight,

Rays that shine through the clouds,

Eternally keeping you warm and bright.

 

What does love look like?

It looks like death;

The dwindling of the physical embodiment.

Your hands may never hold each other’s again…

But the souls of true lovers will never fade, true love has no end.

 

What does love look like?

It looks like the tide of a sea.

The way it flows in and away,

Then back again.

Love is a like a tide that always returns back to the shore,

Because it cannot stay away for too long before it returns back to her.

This is one of those pieces that just came to me. :) The line, "What does love look like," has been sitting in my lil' idea journal for like....3 months now and I've been dying to work with it, so when it struck I was really happy about it. :D

I'm also really proud of this piece so I hope you guys enjoy it. :iconbowplz:

And if someone ever asks you what love looks like, I want you to answer with, "Love looks like you." :love:

Here's the song that really inspired the idea way back when: www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZucVj2…

I love your use of repetition in this to really get your message across, and the last stanza is so, so beautiful and true (especially the last two lines). :love:
