love's fool

love
what is love?
what is love
love is a fading memory
love is piercingly present
love is ful of charm
love is hideously in the way
explosion of love makes you feel ecstatic
explosion of love makes you feel suicidal
love brings goodliness and godliness
love brings celestial vision
Love creates the unity of heaven and earth.
Love tears apart heaven and earth.
Is love sympathy.
Is love gentleness.
Is love possessiveness.
Is love sexuality.
Is love friendship.
Who knows?
