Poison, poison by love
It is too late
Spread thru my body,
So rapidly, that nothing could’ve stop it
Against my will, I fell in love
But I can’t
No I can’t, because I’m scared
Scared to love?
Maybe, because I’m insecure?
It troubles me, my heart aches in pain
Too much pain, I can’t take it
Not any more, no not at all.

Everyone feels pain when they are in love, it is unavoidable.

Now what to do with that pain, I cannot say, for I am still learning myself.

I say love is wonderful, you say it is poisin.

We are both right, as love will never be simple nor will it be easy.

Love takes time, to develop and to distinguish, be strong, have patience, and remember....

Take care of yourself.

I'm not sure what to say.... but only because I do not think my own feelings matter.

I do believe that this is a wonderful poem, because I am motivated to try and understand, and I do my best to do so.

As I try, and my thoughts develop and I wish to say much more, but I will remain silent.
