Love
Is a funny phenomenon
Full of phantasmagorical feelings
That flutter
And beat
And tickle my insides
It begins like a firework
Sudden and bright
Electrically shocking
Attraction ignites with a soft bang
Shifting my perspective
Like a new lens on the world
Coloring it with a rosy hue
Then love calms down
And sets up permanent residence
Inside my chest
The heart is its home.
The fire may die
But love smolders on
It is always there.
With every day
The love grows
Like a steadfast sunflower
Striving to reach the golden orb
As the hands of the clock
Tick tock forward
You forget love is there
It is now a comfort
An anchor
Life would not be the same without it
It holds like a barnacle
Boud to my being
It permeates every action
Every gesture
Every smile
Even each tiny twitch
Odiferates of love's particular aroma
But happily so.
Even when the love inside me
Is solo
Unconnected to another soul
I need it to be there.
The love inside me
May cry and wail
But it is an essential evil
Without it,
There is nothing.
Absence of feeling
My insides would wither
And die
If its boarder was absent.
But with it,
With love,
Life has a purpose
And a meaning.
And since my love coexists
And mingles
With another's love
It is content
And at rest.
But through all the highs
And the lows,
My love is my life.
One hundred and ten percent mine.
I like this
very much
