Love.
Love is the most powerful of all the emotions
Friend and enemy
It can leave you walking on air or drowning in the depths of desperation.
As easily as it can light up your soul, it can rip out your heart and leave it abandoned, alone, yet still pathetically beating on the ground.
Love is invisible.
You can’t see it coming, you can’t see it go.
It comes unannounced and unexpected.
When it leaves, it always leaves a mark.
It’s fickle and true.
Can colour your life rosy with the warmth of happiness or turn it blue with cold stark sad emptiness.
There is no halfway with love.
You either embrace it or you don’t.
Love can give you life, but love can also kill you.
Without a blink, without hesitation, it will strike like a blow from a Blacksmiths hammer, on white-hot iron.
It will reforge you.
The strong and malleable survive, whilst the weak and fragile perish.
The most painful love is unrequited.
Sometimes it and the suffering it causes go unnoticed.
Sometimes it leads to; scorn, rejection, disdain and ridicule.
This love is merciless.
Love is not sex.
Physical desire is not love.
Lust has many partners but Love has only room for one.
It is demanding giving obsessive committed.
