    Poem Commentary

    Inspired by poems I've read from my fellow writers....

    Highs and Lows

    Are we addicted to this thing called love?
    A natural high that nothing else is above.
    A priority that some pretend does not exist within,
    To them they might as well make loving a sin,
    Amazing how life could knock you down
    Causing walls to build around the heart,
    Never knowing how to pick up the pieces
    Never knowing where to start. 
    I feel loves pain through experiences of mine
    And others too,
    Yet I  feel so high when its good just as 
    Others' do
    It's safe to say love is a part of our natural 
    Existence,
    Yet We tend through wisdom to put up
    A resistance.
    "The heart is not too smart" as the old song goes,
    A broken heart is deadly, 
    Those who feel it knows.

    Love has nothing but ups, its the desire to be loved in return that holds the pitfalls!! Great poem again!

    It's a question well worth pondering. I'm kind of lukewarm on love,myself, but I'm an absolute fiend for the benefits that come with it.

    Oh you are? i guess u prefer to remain unattached....

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.
