Everyone talks about
how beautiful it is falling in love
But no-one talks about
the pain after it
It first enchant with its charm
like a siren calling
And then leave you
to your bed sobbing.
It drowns you and then saves you.
It kills you and makes you feel good.
It takes you to the seventh sky and drops you.
It gives you comfort and then leaves you lost in the woods.
Love is heaven or hell I do not understand.
It gives Ineffable peace and then drags on to inescapable fire.
It promises forever with eyes full of affection which never end.
And then burn you with a sinister merciless smile, with your own desire.
It is like a cursed beauty
not sunshine and rainbows.
It wants you to sacrifice everything for it
It's Stygian chasing Phantom with a bloodied cupid's arrow.
