The Complexity of Love

by Michelle   Nov 17, 2003


How we feel about Love
Depends on our past,
Have we been brokenhearted
Or have we had Love that will last?
Love can be forever
A pure endless feeling,
Love can be a shot in the heart
That sends you down reeling.
Love can be so right
Like a soft summer rain,
Love can be rolling thunder
Heartache and pain.
Love can lift you up so high
You feel you're floating around,
Love can pop that balloon
And send you crashing back down.
Love can take down the walls
You have built up inside
Love can plunder that fortress
Leave you without any pride.
Love can comfort and enfold us
In it's great arm,
Love can rip us apart;
Cause irrepairable harm.
Love can be Courage and Wisdom at the right times,
But love is responsible
For so many crimes.
Love can be yellow sunshine
And all things that are bright,
Or it can be black and blue
After a fight.
What Love has come to mean to me
Maybe hasn't meant that same thing to you,
We have to find our own way...
Let's hope we can find one that's bright yellow sunshine..and true.
