The Different Levels of Love, Volume 2

In my life, I have wrestled with my thoughts to understand love. I now realize there are different levels of such and that no two loves are the same. These volumes of poetry are a reflection of what I feel and experience when I close my eyes and think of love, poems reflecting one woman that I may have loved and lost or even one woman that I had and abused. With my eyes closed, oftentimes I have been directed as to what I write. Please remember, that when sharing I do not always speak from a personal point of view; each poem is just an expression of love felt at the stage it was in. As with the initial meeting, getting to know and falling in love fully are levels of love. Breaking up, coming to grips with this loss, and moving on should definitely be considered a part of love as well. Maybe, if we understood these levels better, we could respect them more fully. In doing so, we can possibly cause ourselves and those others that we come into contact with a lot less pain, grief, and sorrow. And we can bring a lot more love, love, love at whatever level of love we find ourselves in.
