The Path of Love
Location
February 11th, 2018
Dear Love,
I walk down your path
I find my friends and family
But there is someone foreign
Unknown and unexpected
A new kind of love
One that is not just expressed through words
But shown with actions
Not like getting kisses from your grandma
But an intimate affection
It’s as if cupid hunted and shot me right in the heart
Like I was the deer being hunted
This love makes you realize things like
I’m half full, not half empty
And love feels like you work on a puzzle but something is missing
And then you finally find that last piece
Making that puzzle complete, whole, and worthy
You become so euphoric
As if you found the one
And life has no limits
But you start to wonder
How could someone love you so much
When you’re so uncoordinated
He stares into your eyes with compassion
Time starts flying
And when you are with him
Hours spent feels like one second
And when you are not with him
It feels as if you haven’t seen him in years
But love is not just diamonds and roses
It is like running then falling
And scraping your face on the cold concrete floor
You come to understand there are differences
And that you can’t stay together no more
And it stings like an open wound doused with acid
You never knew how loving someone could be so hard
You hold on for one more chance just to be with them
But eventually it might not even happen
Sure, love feels comforting and nice
But it also comes with thorns and spikes
But be mindful
This is only my perspective
The most unique part about love is
It’s different for everyone
Sincerely,
My emotions
