Love

When the heart breaks,
The soul breaks. 
Is that what's meant to happen?

Love is nothing
Without a owner
Is that not true?

But blackness oozes 
Out of the sores
Left by love.

It tears at the heart
Ripping it,
Letting the red blood spill.

The gleam of a white
Skull
Pierces through the red
Flesh

Love is nothing
Without another person to share it with
That is true. 

Love can be the only thing stopping you
From 
The 
Inevitable

Love is like syrup;
It's sticky
It's difficult to get off
It's never a forgotten experience 

As much as most do not believe,
Love is in fact,
A disease.

It poisons the heart
Takes over the brain
Shuts down the body. 

Makes one do things,
Not needed
Irrational 
Senseless

However,
We crave it
We don't want to live without it
We like the pain
We like the struggle
We want to experience it

No matter what.
