But what was it?
Did it mean love ,care
No just the excitement of the night
Or maybe love at first sight.

What is it when two people glance
And look across,
A crowded room by chance
And feel so strong a feeling.

What is it when two people cannot say
That they will be together forever
But just that night,or maybe next day
Yes maybe perchance just lust. [comments] => 6 [counter] => 279 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Lilymaemax [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 22 [ratings] => 5 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

Time answers that question, but you ask it so very well....
Attraction is very powerful and sometimes over-powering......
You've put a very nice handle on this....
Great write!

I agree with Steve. Attraction CAN be deliciously overpowering. But the
emotion that overwhelms us most, methinks is the feeling that someone finds
us irresistible. Even for a night. It does incredible things for the ego.

Unfortunately, I don't believe that is love though. It's sad that some will take
advantage of one's own insecurities. (And we ALL have them, regardless of
what some believe). I think the question of love or lust greatly depends
upon your gender. At least that is what experience has led me to believe.

Great post! Very thought provoking. ^_^

an issue well explored with this poem here. the difference between love and lust in my opinion is commitment and i think you agree with me at the end. good job.

Love and lust are to often confussed
the irony any time I've loved any one I never felt lust or physical desire
with lust that's all that is there
This write proves that love will never be lost just misunderstood
truly appropriate write

girl, i think that's the million dollar question! The words were an interesting play on an age old question.
