She who is always in my thought prefers
Another man, and does not think of me
Yet he seeks another's love, not hers;
And some poor girl is grieving for my sake.
Why then, the devil take
Both her and him; and love; and her; and me.
Bhartrhari (5th century)

They call me Mistress and Priestess but I'm just me young crazy and free!
The cause of all the pain, The one who always cares, Nothing lost and nothing gained, The one whose always there. Maybe I'm condescending, Maybe this truth is almost ending.
Unrequited and unfulfilled, I'm not as smart as that girl, I'm not as pretty as the other girl, and the one you were talking about the other day is far nicer than me.
You say it's nothing like that. But you cry, as if it is like that. You tell me we're friends, But you forgive me for not being your friend. You say I have someone else out there.
It was a spur of the moment thing, saying I love you. I'm not sure if I meant it, mean it. I'm not even sure what I feel for you, felt for you.
I have no heart, Yet can't you see, There is no one who loves you more than me, Though I have no heart, No emotions either, I know I love you, Even without it.
I’ve tried to stray so far from you. That I walk a mile away. But you know how to pull me back. With the charming things you say. Sadly I’m a sucker dear. The first hurdle stops me everytime.
You say that you love me. But we'd be no good together. You say that you need me. But push me away. You say that you want me. But tell me to find another. I ask for nothing. I expect nothing.
We've been here before I get too close, you get scared, You run away from it all. It's ok, I know you Better than you think.
Don't like quoting as this is meant to be a place to express yourself but I love this poem and sometimes you can read a poem and think that's it that was the words I was looking for. ❤
@aleishagayle20 yeah you couldn't some up how things are any better really, there's too much love going round I think. It's written so long ago as well and still rings so true.
I do like the old stuff, they had a great of speaking/writing. Maybe is cos da vocab was dif back den, ya? Lol sorry couldn't help it ;-) xxxx
@Stablish exactly it's not love just lust think they love you until they get what they want then go and find new love 😢 then you get left broken and used for someone else to come and repeat the cycle! Stupid life 😢
@smellyfingers lol hehe your mental do prefer old stuff though 🌹 so much more meaningful and romantic ☺
@Stablish really?? love loads of people? Hehe not love then unless td you loving them all in a different way? Then maybe 😉
@aleishagayle20 lol yeah 'tis romantic 'cos we doesn't speak like they done no mores. Imagine going into a shop (McDonald's or something) and they spoke like that? Loool this is why I can't read the classics like Shakespere and dickens, messes with my dyslexia, thee, thy, tho....,Lool xxx Mwah xxx
@smellyfingers I suppose but if people spoke like it now would still be hot 😉 hehe hehe you nutter it's difficult but if you apply yourself you'd crack the 'thy' 'thee' olde English code hehe 😘
@aleishagayle20 maybe I should get a speaking book or something? To be honest tho, 'tis not my cup of orange juice, me prefer non-fiction stuffs. Not really into reading stories. I did read Dan Brown tho.....that's a classic isn't it? Rofl xxxx
Soon you'll be quoting Shakespeare's sonnets and Blakes verses awwww 😘😘 you should try thought you were more experimental 😉 hehe mwah mwah 😘😘
@aleishagayle20 @smellyfingers There's someone who made an old style poem earlier I think I reposted it. Full of words you would love. And yes it is sad, I think I love to much sometimes or to easy.
"The Widow" Megan Elizabeth (-; . Ps. How to you get those crazy emotions in text? An app or something?
@aleishagayle20 No problem, would leave a nice emotion but will finish this first, here's my last emotionless text. (-;
@aleishagayle20 dunno 'bout that, lol I really haven't read all that much. I'm not into made up stories, lol I'm lazy and prefer films, bad I know. But I'm reading all the time on Internet Lool yes me likes to push the boundaries of possibilities.....not the kind of experiments I'm into Lmfao ;-) x Mwah
@smellyfingers well at least your reading something ☺ and ooooooo do go on what experimenting do you prefer 😘😉
@aleishagayle20 @Stablish I feel left out.....it's making me paranoid how everyone knows about something I don't :-( lol
Romance is not about the language, it's about the story. About the people, and the strength of their connection. I think because of the way our world is becoming increasingly more connected, on a more personal level, we become more disconnected. No more room for real love, when we have to constantly show the world how free we are, so it gets tough to settle down. IMHO😉
@DuRoLuRo I just found olde English romantic and beautiful I love it and IMHO things like dating sites and Facebook don't help it makes people more connected but is distancing the whole courtship process dating and ruins the while romance. That's what I think anyway ☺
@aleishagayle20 do you not like being hot then? I do, it's good to be in the sun. Lol Mwah xxx Mwah xxx
@DuRoLuRo Yeah I have yet to find true love, I just see love in loads of people. Even some I should hate confusingly sometimes.😔
@smellyfingers oh and yes living being hot not so much in the sun more under the skin hahahehehe 😘😉😘
@Stablish think you should live is a strong word the way I love Shakespeare and the way I love my child too different loves lol 😍
@aleishagayle20 Rings very true! "it's complicated" as Facebook would put it. @smellyfingers @Stablish @DuRoLuRo interesting debate about love. I agree with Stablish about feeling love towards many people... In the sense that not one person can fulfil ur every need. I have many lovers... One who I laugh and crack jokes with, one who I love physically, one who I sit down and discuss literature, philosophy and mind-fucks with, one who I go shopping with... I love all these people unconditionally. And if I ever meet a guy I want to have babies with its ok to love other people too. I don't think it's natural not to..
@powpunch Lmao that echoes a poem I wrote previous love being too complicated, you've made clear distinctions about types of love whereas most categorise it all into one that's what gets me lol love is a strong word so should be distinguished clearly 😊 Thanks for comment.
