True Love

Have you ever felt true love?
Not an attraction towards the cutest person you know, Not a yearning to be with someone because you feel alone.

A deep burden on your chest, a feeling of happiness, embarrassment and being out of your mind all at once, in one word love. Only one reason to keep going, chasing that feeling only to have it suddenly disappear.

Every string snapped and torn through your heart, breaking and crushing under great pressure, it isn't exaggerating, it's excruciating, even makes a man go crazy.

Love to me can be fun but only for a short time, love is like a bomb, counting down each second, seeping its way into your veins and clawing its way through your mind.

If love has infected you, live in that moment because before you know it the timer will have stopped counting and then, the only love you'll have is insanity.
