Image: Love - Reminiscent of innocence (here)
sublime (tending to inspire awe usually because of
elevated quality as of beauty, nobility, or grandeur)
Catching it with a basket of nerves
Love falling down on a wild run
An implored show of manly verve
The untested could well start with fun
Reminiscent of innocence of the young
Given leeway to develop own emotions
Raised to a higher level of one so sublime
Complete with tags of outright devotion
Falling in love conjured measures of desire
Head over heels madly rushing in blindly
Falling out of love reflected stated failures
Could get second chance out of sympathy
For Sanaa's Prompt Nights #6: -
to love would be sublime
Raised to a higher level of one so sublime
ReplyDeleteComplete with tags of outright devotion
Lovely - its true when a person falls in love he tends to raise his level of devotion to the utmost degree. Beautifully penned. Thank you so much for participating Hank :D
Lots of love,
Sanaa
In and out can sure be a crushing blow to some.
ReplyDeleteLove is unpredictable, forgiving, and can be an accident too. I agree as well.

ReplyDeleteThis really captures the falling in and falling out in relationships. I like the tension and the basket of nerves.
