Wikipedia Entry for the Soul by ~indieXchick13:iconindieXchick13:



I read the Wikipedia entry for love today.
  It was too cold, calculated, and plain.

  Everything love shouldn’t be, couldn’t be.
Thought that was pretty simple to see.



So here’s what Wiki won’t tell you.
Extract the truth and send it through.



Love grows like a tree
All that’s required is a seed.

  It’ll extend roots in to the soul.
  Could tear them out, but you’re left with a hole.

Can try to fill it with things you don’t need.
When really all it requires is a seed.



I edited the wikipedia entry for love today,
  To finally put their science at bay,

  Instead I put the picture of a tree.
That used to be just a tiny seed.



As I waited I hoped they’d let it be,
But now it’s back to practicality.

Yeah! new work.

true story as it turns out, I was bored and was looking to the internet to tell me if I'd ever fall head-over-heels-never-live-without-that-person-again in love and how to recognize it when it comes along. So of course I head over to Wikipedia "Where all life's mysteries have answers."

And let me tell you... it was so depressing. Like it was Explaining a phenomenon the world actually believed, you know like the easter bunny or Santa claus.

I was so depressed I wrote my own little poem to cheer me up. and here it is!!!! more rhyme-y-er than usual but hey rhymes are good. No?

yes they are! thats what happens when you try to describe love in any way except abstractly, because thats the closest we can get to explaining it. if you try to make love, or any other emotion into an explanation, to put it words is certain to butcher it to some degree. Its not something anyone can ever fully explain. especially since it means something different to everyone. your poem makes a good point:)

I saw a commercial that said, "Forget everything you know about slipcovers!" ... So I did. And it was a load off my mind. Then the commercial tried to sell me slipcovers, but I didn't know what the hell they were.

Honestly I don't think there are words to describe love, even the word "love" seem a bit childish and overused compared to the emotion. The only Thing That seems to compare is music. Even though nowadays It seems not to be the case.

...

good dance mixes though lol
