When you can't face the mirror and can't face the stormy weather—
Alone.
When you're sick, weak and want to curl up and succumb to your symptoms. When you have the very best news possible, and there's only one person you want to share these experiences with.
That. Is. Love.

Aww, this is lovely! Very romantic :)
Nice. 😅Just deleted my nihilist Debbie downer comment! You’re welcome! Let’s build each other up lol!

Really nice. Everyone is loved regardless how they think
Nice one. I like this.
Very true.
Short, raw, and powerful. Love isn’t just in the highs or the lows—it’s in the presence, the unwavering there-ness.
Ah, ain’t that the truth. Another cracking challenge entry from you.
So true, Paul! This really captures true love at its best.
Not having anyone to tell wonderful news to sucks so bad. Love your poem so much!
And that it is. Simple, yet profound, Paul.
That. Is. True. 🤗
The one with whom I suppose I could do without--but then all the magic in the world would disappear.
Feels like you’ve entered a fourth act with these last couple! And it’s a really beautiful, deeply feeling one! So relatable and just wonderfully wrought!
Very true & well said 🤩.
Yes, that is love, <3 Very beautifully put
Good job and how very true.
