like the ocean

love is always loving you
she says
like the ocean loves the waves

but the road to your heart
is rough a/f
not for the faint of...

it's dangerous
not many would dare

so many beautiful places
blocked by so many
rock slides

is it too much work
to clear the way

or easier 
not to feel

love is always loving you
she says
like the ocean loves the waves

The simplicity of your poem is beautiful with raw emotional depth. My favorite line: is it too much work / to clear the way / or easier / to just not feel, is especially striking, it is vulnerable and at the same time thought-provoking.
