Long Live Love
How does one ever describe love
It is such an intangible thing
There are billions of people in the world
But there are very few that cross our paths
However, we know instantly
When that special person pops onto the scene
A certain chemistry grabs hold of us
The hair on the back of our neck
Stands up and lets us know
This person is very different from all the rest
We have trouble sleeping at night
We drive 40 mph in a 60 mph zone
We lose concentration doing the simplest things
Am I getting close???
There are very few people who haven't experienced
This totally overpowering sensation
That takes over our whole being
I can honestly say I have only experienced it once
I've never forgotten it and never will
This is as close to describing love
As I can ever hope to... long live love!
