Sometimes people float into
Our lives, and they stay a while.
You don’t know how long
They will be there.
Sometimes you become friends,
Due to common interests,
Or common experience.
And sometimes that friendship
Blooms into something more.
Sometimes you really care
About each other,
And sometimes, you fall in love.
From there, at least for a while,
Things sometimes go nicely,
But often, one or the other
Brings the sting of pain
Into the relationship.
And from there,
The relationship is tested.
Can the love withstand
The pain, or is there
Reason to break?
Such is the path,
That some tread lightly,
And some go through
Full-force, future-be-damned.
Either way,
Sometimes love is fickle,
And sometimes love
Turns into war.
One never knows
What to expect,
When one falls in love.
