It starts with a glance
Each person stares to connect
But must be careful
Or a pure life could be wrecked
Love can feel strong
Looking into eyes not blind
They can make you melt
Or destroy your once strong mind
A hug can be tough
For tightness can be the best
For if arms are loose
Then the warmth becomes dead rest
A kiss can be sweet
Sugar cotton candy turn
Or pure dark evil
Tingle to an acid burn
To fall for ones soul
Brings the pressure to the top
So the body shakes
And the heartbeat will not stop
But take it away
The feeling will fall to death
So that one deep sigh
Becomes one person’s last breath
To play with ones heart
May seem easy at the time
But pain is not right
Back at bottom, hard to climb
