Truth About Love

Love is a mystery
Can be male or female
Light or darkness
Strength or sickness


Not always black and white
It is not always obvious
But complex
Some times incoherent


Love can break all the rules
Or get strangled between them
Can be freedom or cage
Give wings or chains
Change and challenge
Utmost exploration or exploitation


Love can give or take
Be strong or fake
Fairy tale or nightmare
Loneliness or continent


Love has a thousand faces
Love is the ultimate experience
Can be the dream of a lifetime
Salvation and destination


Love can be frightening for hearts
Afraid of vulnerability


Love demands intensity
Surrender
It brings risks
But life is all about risks anyway


Love and Life
Have a lot in common
Both are essential
Imperfect


Without them
We are nothing!
