Love Is

Love is …

Love is a gamble, love hurts
If only the pain was something that reverts 
Love is testing not always kind 
Love  can lead us all to be blind 
Love is  painful, love is unfair 
Love can expose you and lay you bare 
Love can go one or two ways 
For some Love is just a phase 
Love is tiring it can leave you drained 
Love is something that sometimes can't be explained 
Love is often  uncontrollable
It can sometimes leave you  feeling inconsolable 
But wait….
Love is happiness, love is joy 
Love  can leave you feeling coy 
Love is magical , love is true 
I know because i've felt that too 
Love is powerful, it can be uplifting 
It can feel like your always drifting 
Love is simple, yet so complicated
It can give you a rush or leave you completely deflated 
Love is a double sharp edged blade 
Be careful with whom your heart you trade.
