Love Is A Warning

Love is a word,
Love is a feeling,
Everyone feels,
And if they don’t,
They wish they did,
It’s a topic,
That’s engraved so much,
Confused feeling,
On the hearts,
Of poets who write,
Thousands of poems,
And on the voices,
Of talented musicians,
Who echo their pain,
Into thousands songs,
These thought out words,
These carefully plucked tunes,
Are thousands of warnings,
Watch out for the pain,
They all say,
Watch for the breaking,
Of your fragile heart,
I never quite heard it,
Was never listening,
Long enough to tell,
So I tripped myself,
Into a little bit of love,
His eyes made me fall,
I looked into his blue orbs,
And splat,
Into a puddle of the dangerous,
Four lettered word,
And into the arms of a boy,
Who was waiting there,
This whole time,
Just to catch me,
And I tried,
To pull myself out,
But all it took,
Was a meeting,
Of the eyes,
And I’d splat back in,
And all it took was chat,
His voice so very deep,
And I never ever,
Tried to escape,
That puddle again,
But all of a sudden,
He got up,
Climbed out,
And left the love scene,
Now my heart pounds,
Trying so very hard,
To give my body,
Blood so it won’t,
Shut down from the pain,
So it won’t die,
To get away,
I yearn for his voice,
I call out,
Asking and pleading,
For his touch,
Just once more,
I wanted,
I yearned,
And I begged,
To be in love,
But this pain,
It’s driving me insane,
Love is not worth,
The ache and the pain,
And now I believe,
Every break up song,
Every warning,
Put into the universe
By a withering,
Crying,
Pained soul,
And here is my own,
Stay away from the puddle,
Of the dangerous,
Four letter word,
Stay away from the people,
Who wait there,
To catch you in their arms,
And hold you close,
For a promised eternity,
At single glance,
You’ll know them,
They carry the love,
In their laughter,
And with the love,
Along comes the pain,
When they decide to go away,
And leave you,
Wondering what eternity,
Really is.
