7. Love

By Rose Strailo

Its butterflies in the stomach and smiles that carry a secret. It’s walking hand in hand, even if it in secret. Its soft kisses and softer looks. It’s holding each other close, no need for sexual intimacy every night.
Its giggles and laughs, even at the stupidest things. It’s forgiving after a big fight and compromise before.
Its life for the heart and soul that fills you up and never leaves you empty. It’s the light in the dark that I want in my life for always.
It’s the one thing that has a duel side though. It can cut and maim, leaving you sobbing and in pain. It can destroy you even as it rebuilds you.
But it’s always there just for you.
