That creature, Love.

Looking for that creature, Love, in all the wrong places
and seeing nothing but gritting teeth and sour faces.
A life lived without the glimpse of love, is one unsettled
since apparently, with your heart you haven’t meddled.
Love awakens the person you really are
and lets you live life with out any regard.
You care for someone deeper and more than for yourself
and you’d be willing to give up all of your material wealth..
You’d sell off the farm just to be wrapped in her arms
and sigh in relief as you spent hours in her charms…
Love can blind you to the point you can’t even think
and love can come in and push you over the brink..
Drive you insane in the cold of night, snow falling softly
and love can show you the person you were meant to be.
Smiles in the dark, words whispered in raspy tongue
Love, the creature we all love to be among.
