How Love Works

by Jessica Evelyn Maxwell   Jun 6, 2007


What is it about a person that
makes your heart
jump out of your chest?
Is it the way they move,
their facial expression,
their smile, their laugh, their eyes.
Is it the way they make you laugh,
the way they always know
exactly what to say.
Is it the way they whisper
softly in your ear.

What is it about a person that
gives you butterflies,
is it that the chemical reaction is right,
is it the sound of their voice.
How do you fall in love with no fear,
is it because you love them
so much that its all
you ever think about.

why is it that when it gets hard
and all you wanna do is give up
yet you hold on.
is it because you are love struck,
is it because the feelings are so strong
that you couldnt deal without them
in your life.

Why is it that everytime
a love song comes on
it makes you want to cry
because you miss them so much.
Why when they look into your eyes,
do you get a cold chill
running down your spine.
Why is it that everytime yu
close ur eyes yu see them,
is it because you want to be around them
twenty four seven

Why is it that no matter what
they say or do you still love them
with your whole heart
with no intention of stopping.
Why is it that even though you cant have them
you'll never give up,
is it because they
mean the world to you.
all you can do is hope and
wish with everything you are that one day
you can be with them
and when it happens
you dont want to let go
because you couldnt imagine life
without them.

There all yu think about,
dream about
always in ur thoughts,
yu cry at night because you wish
they were beside yu.

When its time to say goodbye,
you dont want to speak,
you dont want to let them go.
All you want to say is;
I want yu,
I need yu,
I cant live without yu.
I Love Yu.
