What is love?
Is it a flower in bloom?
Is it a child saying his first word or
A bird singing in the breeze
Or is it a storm waiting to happen?
A tumult of boiling emotions
That smashes against your heart.
Is it relentless?
Is it a monster?
Is it as silent as a cloud moving in the breeze?
Does it sneak up on the unexpecting?
Does it hit you like a ton of bricks?
Does it hide amongst lies?
Because I still don’t know what
Love is
The idea doesn’t come to mind
The picture doesn’t form
And the words don’t spill from my tongue
I don’t comprehend
What magic can fill your heart
And make everything else disappear
Make all the pain vanish
Like the one you love is always near
Just a thought away.
But I’m always in a panic
I am always afraid
Love changes everything
It even ruins the wall
That protects you from everything else
It hungers to be broken
It hungers to be fixed
It hungers grow larger
It hungers to be mixed
With the love of another
Your other half
But how can I do any of that
When I don’t even know what love is?
