Love Whirlpools

Love is so emotional because it is all emcompassing.
We allow it to take over our whole lives, our whole being.
We give it so much importance allowing it to control so many aspects of our lives
blindly seeing it as a positive force.
Unfortunately love can have a negative effect on our lives.
It makes us question both our rational and irrational thought processes and behaviour.
We believe it has the power to put us in a place we all strive for - a Utopia filled with total happiness, peace and contentment.
Sadly, it also has the power to heighten and intensify our senses to the point of combustion.
We try not to be washed away on the tide of love for fear of drowning in a stream of passionate extremities.
Yet, we know we have little choice....to truly love is to allow oneself to be emotionally swept away.
We only ride the waves of emotional bliss once or twice in our lives...sometimes love is not enough.....there are too many whirlpools in the stream and our hearts sink,
leaving our souls to drown.
