• Love.
    Why does it exist?
    Something that can cause so much pain
    and suffering.
    Yet it's so blissful.
    Like a roller-coaster.
    It might be the best ride of your life,
    but when you step out,
    do you have a strong stomach?
    Or do your insides reject it?

    It seems like such an irresistible thing.
    This is not always like a roller-coaster.
    But you might be afraid to go on that ride,
    especially
    if you've been on it
    before.

    But then, you wonder,
    maybe this one isn't as bad as the others.
    Maybe it'll be gentle,
    and I can take it.

    Wrong.

    You're almost always wrong.

    But it's that thrill,
    that fun
    that always brings us back again.
