"It is better to have loved and lost than to have never loved at all"
Such a beautiful sentiment... for the teenager who just broke up with their sweetheart, but not very practical for the
person that has been in love, experienced love, or has been swept away by love. Love truly makes the world go around,
even if it is just your little world.
How do we express that kind of love in our writing? Is all poetry an expresion of our love for words, patterns, syllables, rhythm,
rhyme? Do all stories in the Romance/Love genre have to be about two people living happily everafter. Do love stories have to be
about the captian of the football team; the young muscle bound boy with perfect skin and soft hands, falling deeply head over heels
for the cheerleader?
Of course the answer to that question is "NO", in fact a love story doesn't even have to be about two people. I have read a lot of stories where the "love" is shared between a man and his loyal and trustworthy bovine.
In honor of Black History Month I thought I'd give you an idea for a story... By using song lyrics from old Motown hits create a dialogue between two individuals who are either looking or have found love.
Sitting by the dock of the bay, I grabbed my cell phone and I just called to say "I love you".
To maintain your R-E-S-P-E-C-T I'll leave you to your love of writing and I'll see you next month. |
