Every man is a poet when he is in love,by Plato ancient Greek philosophy. How do you think of this wisdom? I remember when I fell in love the first time,my heart is full with feelings,tender and passionate.I wrote lots of love stories about my beloved one.But he broke my heart at ,and I stopped writing and reading.I didn't read because I don't want to be touched by those stories.I even thought they were crap of cliche.I became dull ,tough and headstrong. Then I fell for this guy who I thought was my Mr.Right after 4 years or so.He light up my life,and I start writing poems of love again.I loved him deeply and ardently,I knew somewhat I was risking to get my heart broken again.But I was unstoppable even I wanted to.Within no more than a month,I found out he was cheating on me,I went out with several girs besides me,he was a big liar. This time it didn't take me a long time to get over that,although it was heartbroken.Now my heart is filled with love again,which gives me a soft and sensible heart.I have a strong feeling in me ,that I want to write some love poems.

its true i guess. actually love is such a nice feeling that it brings out the poet inside you. you want to adress the beloved in all nice words. so it seemn sthe poetry comes so easily at the tip of pen. its the feelings that makes poems.

Love can hurt but you should go for it. Life without love to me would be very hard.

Yes I agree. I become a natural writer when I am in love. My poems don't rhyme though LOL. Just sweet notes to make her heart melt. *wink wink*

when you're in love you get a heady feeling and you like everything you see.you're light on your steps your spirits are high and you're in kind of euphoria.everything sounds music to your ears and in this you get romantic and want to pen down everything you feel about and what better way to do it than poems.they provide a window to your innermost feelings and let you understand yourself better and set yourself free too.
