Love's fall


the sun rises or it sets
there is no in-between
no resting of the tire-less wind
nothing
except the motion
tumbling me in and out
toward and away
from
the heart scrambling sensation
of love

don't pity, don't rejoice
for neither the kiss nor the pain
that encompasses this love's free ride
propels me to
the centre

this love is different
it's not that of a child
although a child
is what it makes you
as you try to understand
all the notions that are conjured

some say that love is easy
yet I'll wonder if they've loved
because love doesn't fall into your lap
it makes you fall...
and if you rise
then
you have loved
or never loved at all

i loved this a lot..very interesting and sad..and just wow to this

some say that love is easy
yet I'll wonder if they've loved
because love doesn't fall into your lap
it makes you fall...
and if you rise
then
you have loved
or never loved at all

i agree im one of those ppl who love to the core of the cores..and no love is not easy...but not hard....we dnt all deserve love..cause we ruin it...love doesn't make us fall...is who we love who push us down stairs... believe me love is too genuine..when u wana get angry choose the right target...its what i did hehe...i love this work no bet book marked and applaudsss....

Sad, reflective - love can be the greatest of hell - yet never to experience the emotion would leave me bereft - there is always something beautiful in pain - exquiste hell or heaven
