    Poem Commentary

    Inspired by poems I've read from my fellow writers....

    Highs and Lows

    Are we addicted to this thing called love?
    A natural high that nothing else is above.
    A priority that some pretend does not exist within,
    To them they might as well make loving a sin,
    Amazing how life could knock you down
    Causing walls to build around the heart,
    Never knowing how to pick up the pieces
    Never knowing where to start. 
    I feel loves pain through experiences of mine
    And others too,
    Yet I  feel so high when its good just as 
    Others' do
    It's safe to say love is a part of our natural 
    Existence,
    Yet We tend through wisdom to put up
    A resistance.
    "The heart is not too smart" as the old song goes,
    A broken heart is deadly, 
    Those who feel it knows.

    Love has nothing but ups, its the desire to be loved in return that holds the pitfalls!! Great poem again!

    It's a question well worth pondering. I'm kind of lukewarm on love,myself, but I'm an absolute fiend for the benefits that come with it.
