Love,
Intangible, but certainly obtainable
It takes the form
Of a mysterious power
That travels the atmosphere
Waiting for the right moment,
For the right person to possess
To change their lives for the better
Love,
It really doesn’t have an understanding
Of the future.
It doesn’t know what will come,
What can happen.
Sometimes, it gets itself wrong,
But it never gives up.
It falls and it dusts itself off
And it tries again
And again
And again
Until its gets itself right.
Until it gets itself perfect.
Until it becomes everlasting.
Love is whimsical.
It can be capricious.
It’s fickle to the point that it becomes overwhelming.
But let me assure you
That it doesn’t intend to be that way.
Think of love as a mentally challenged individual
It can be one way at one moment in time
And then a completely different way
Another moment in time.
But it can’t help being that way.
It changes people.
That the mystical power it possesses
It takes time
It doesn’t happen overnight.
It’s a foundation that has to be built.
It’s a fortress that has to be guarded,
So that the strongest invasion
Doesn’t even stand a chance.
It’ll never go away.
Run from it as much as you can.
But you will tire very easily.
It will catch up to you
Like a shadow in the night
Or a sunray in the morning.
Only the strongest survives
The unpredictability of love.
It goes through changes.
Think of the four seasons.
It’s happy like a hot summer day.
Angry like a destructive hurricane.
Sad like a rainfall on an otherwise beautiful sunny day.
Yet bitter like a cold snowy evening.
But don’t let it scare you.
The mission is to stay with it
Throughout the changes.
That’s the adventure of it all.
Not taking into account
Certain actions that can’t be forgiven,
Love must be cherished
Be kind to it
Nurture it.
And in return,
It will bring good into your life.
Its scary
The unknown can be
But the amusement of it all
Is deciding what to do
When faced with the great obstacles.
Don’t give up
And it won’t give up on you.
It only wants to shroud you
Not haunt you
It wants to hug you
Not suffocate you.
Love,
tangible?
