When love knocks
Invite, arms open wide
Greet like you missed an old friend
Talk about the in-between times,
the last time you met

Everytime it arrives,
it appears like a little bird,
landing on your fence
Fluttering your soul,
tingling your senses

Feeding you lust of desires
lures you in it's trance of deception

When smothered tight,
it transforms to a snake
hissing your insecurities,
whispering your fears

It cannot condone when you become
the perfect epitome of love than itself

When tried to get rid of it,
it'll stay choking your neck
lurking around your walls
leaving you hopeless
It likes to hunt and you're it's prey
You run it chases
It thrives on your affliction

The thing about love
It's a misunderstood creature
polymorphic in nature,
expects you to mirror

Silly little stubborn child
seeking undying attention
wants to be heard
loved in return

So the next time love barges in,
let it soak in your love
let it stay
Be what it wants,
no questions asked

If love's the bitter sting, aching
then, love is the antidote to love

Caress it like a mother
cradle on your lap
hold tight to your *****
Let it choke
Let it strain

Watch it crumble
Watch it slowly die.
