A feeling Born from instinct,
Manifested into a gateway, it has allowed us to venture into its many realms.
Love is a transcendence of logical explanation,
When previous protocols are overwritten and what’s left is worth it.
Love is a refined pallet, forever starving,
It engulfs the unimportant, unable to satisfy; in search for a divine flavor.
Love is a hardened empathy,
Refined by time, recognized by others and forever a guide.
Love is pain, a strain on the body and mind,
A paradox, a cure and a double edged sword.
Love is a decision, a sacrifice,
To hold someone above yourself,
To surrender any hindrances and all for a greater good.
Love is an ignorant priority,
You would watch the world crumble around you,
As long as they were in your arms.
Love is the hero,
The innocently naive who would face unfathomable adversity and still hold its beliefs.
