Author's Note: This poem was my first, but it is shared with @TheBookworm1237 . There are two perspectives in this poem, written in different fonts. The prologue and epilogue are shared point of views.
Prologue:
Love will be lost,
Won't be restored
They will lose faith and gain it once more,
The hatred will take over,
Then set you free
Making you wonder if this is all a dream
Once you see what true love can be
POV 1
Love is like a cage
Traps you in
Before you can get out
Builds unbreakable walls
Ones that cannot be torn down
Like a sea that pulls you under
Before you can cry out
It crashes down like waves
Of Lightning and Thunder
You can miss in it the blink of an eye
But you will never be the same
After love messes with your brain
You can never be sure who's wrong
And who's right
Love can tear people apart
As much as it can bring you together
Just make sure you look
Before you choose
A choice that could end your love forever
Love is cruel, love is special, love is cherished, love is hated, love is lost, and it's found
Love is the beauty of life
POV 2
How can love be but a choice?
It doesn't trap those who don't fall in,
Those who don't fall don't need a way out
Before they can scream or cry or shout
That, oh, life isn't fair!
No one could love me so what's the point?
This loneliness pulls me in,
Almost as much as love would if I let it win.
But I won't surrender to its siren song
Even if what I do to avoid it may seem wrong
There is Lightning and Thunder
Amid the churning sea
Dangerously hopeful I am
And hopefully dangerous love is
And can be
Thinking that I might just get free
