Love, is a temporary madness
Erupts like an earthquake and then subsides
And when it does, you gotta make a decision
You have to work out whether
Your roots have become so entwined together
That it is inconceivable that you should ever be
Apart
Because this is what love is
Love is not breathlessness
Not passion
Not excitement
And not the promulgation of promises
That is just being "in love"
Love itself is what is left over
When being "in love" has burned away
A fortunate accident
One of my all time favourite songs
