the enigma of love

As unreliable as an hear-say, as deceptive as a lie
It directs our path, though it has no eyes

It takes us to happyness, then bring us to tears
'cause it's been blind and leading us all these years

It builds like a bond, then contrlols like a hand
As subtle as the serpent, it works like a wond

As compulsive a thirst, as pervasive as a trend
With a sure beginning but seems to have no end

It enraptures like a joke, and captivates like a song
It inspires like hope, yet is resented as a wrong

As persued as an haven, as inaccessible as the skies
As scarse as a friend, yet right before your eyes

It overpowers like flood, and consumes like fire
yet the passion of its hug is everyone's desire

Starting at the heart, it is seen through the eyes
to others from the hands, it makes you smile
a gift to man from above the clouds
it lies inside, but colours our lives..
