A Knee-Jerk Reaction

An outpouring of happiness
love surges up from the heart
and splashes against the soul;
an emotion exclusive to humans.
More than a ubiquitous word,
love is an overwhelming desire
that burns in your heart
and merges with your soul;
defying logic and reason.
The heart entertains a multitude
of inexplicable feelings
beyond all hopes and expectations;
love is both ethereal and physical.
A heart filled with love forgives
what a prideful heart will not;
for love's a knee-jerk reaction
that requires no thought.
Love can bring excruciating pain
or a euphoric rush;
either way, it will not be ignored,
nor ever go away.
