love is not

everyone seems to be writing
about what love is

so i'll write about
what love is not

love is not sunshines
and rainbows
love is not pretty
all the time
love is not magic.
love is not perfect.

out of all the "love is not's" i've written,
here's a positive one:
love is a risk worth taking.
