The Gist of Love, A poem by Monalisa Parida

THE GIST OF LOVE!
A Poem Composed by Monalisa Parida 

 

Sometimes few words does
The work of a lengthy paragraph
But you need the paragraph
If you want to define those words
“I Love You” is not enough.
Just like any adventure
It requires
Work,
Patience,
Faith,
Commitment
To justify fulfilling.
I vow to always
Believe in you,
Value you,
Love you,
Forever.
It doesn’t matter where on Earth
I plant my feet
As long as you are standing next to me.
Let it go,
Let it leave,
Let it happen,
Nothing in this world was promised or
Belonged to me anyway.
