Love...

•
sucha unexplainable word,

•
sucha sneeky trap,

•
sucha unreliable feeling.
 
You don't know how to explain it so you get sucked into finding the meaning.
 
You let it take your world, you rotate around, it becoming your center.
 
trust, courage, bravery, happiness, honesty, etc,
they can get ruined easily by the poison in a veil called heart break.
 
It kills you slowly.
 
Cracking the walls of your heart,
stabbing your gut,
bringing your life down.
 
Convincing you, in the end, you're a fool & will never find anything.

This poem describes love in a negative way, which I think about when it comes to heart break. Though it is the best feeling in the world, so hard to explain, it can be a sneaky trap you get sucked into.
