Ode To Love Poem by Samantha Torrez

Oh, love,
You make the smartest people blind,
You make them warm and fuzzy,
Mushy and gushy,
Fill them with hugs and kisses,
Late night laughs and midday wishes,
Now, you turn for the worst,
A bump in the road,
A cry for help,
A scream of fear,
Another broken heart to lie with the rest,
With you love there is no end, no beginning,
No equal dose of dark nor light,
You the most perfectly disastrous feeling,
A haunting memory,
A first kiss,
The feeling of fire,
The shock of desire,
Love, you hurt, scar, burn, bruise, kill,
You give us wings, butterflies, sparks fly,
Feelings explode
You’re a feeling no one can define or ignore
A dagger through the heart
A mirror of trust
So question is….
Do I fall?
Or run?
