Learning From Love

The feeling comes without warning,
Bright,like the sun rising in the morning.
It completely takes over your mind,
As both your futures become twined.

The scent of sweetness,
There is no time for discreetness.
Just take their hand,
And wonder through no man's land.

Without love,you are dying,
And you find yourself constantly sighing.
Because nothing else is as mesmerizing,
And to yourself you don't like lying.

When you felt like you were grasping air,
There was always someone there to care.
And now you are lost without them,
Like a flower without a stem.

So nobody is there to support,
What is in your every thought.
Go running back,
Find the courage that you lack.

And beg for a different ending,
Because you have stopped pretending.
That your life story is written to perfection,
So you are finally walking in a different direction.
