Understanding Love
No one can wholly understand love
Love is never what one thinks it is
Love often comes as a snippy surprise
As a starry shock stemming from above.
Love is a hieroglyphic puzzle
Love has the power to muzzle
Shackle, overpower, direct and destroy
Love can be very volatile or hazardous toy.
As soon as one is somewhat comfortable
Love shows her ugly fangs on the table
Love is not always a beautiful spring.
Love behave like a cunning chameleon
Love behaves like an uncommon phenomenon
No one can completely comprehend this thing.

Not often, I feel, is the darker side of love considered. The love of power, the love of materials, the love of dark ideals. Those loves lend themselves to dangerous decisions, grabs for power, lust leading the way. To understand love is to not just hold the light in your hands, but dig through the dark as well. Thank you for the reminder that love, though capable of shining many rainbows, is among the greyest of forces at its core.
