-what Is Love-

Love?
I guess it's something like a 
pirate ship,
take you and flip you upside 
down, Caribbean,
it can be the best or toss you 
into oblivion,
but don't obliviously,
and continuously, carry on, 
because what if the ship that 
your on,
begins to sink,
and gets sucked down the 
kitchen sink,
so don't start to think, That 
your "Forever Alone", 
When your clearly thinking in 
the wrong zone, 
You start to shrug and groan, 
but past relationships show 
you how you've grown,
Teach you things you never 
would've known,
About others and about 
yourself, 
Used to hiding your feelings 
like a secret lever on a 
bookshelf,
But your lab is your heart, and 
that, that is a piece of art.

-Levi Davis.
