A description of love


The indescribability is limitless
and none can be too much or too extreme,
since love is all about extremes
of fascination, feelings, beauty and fixation,
there being nothing like it, no drug, no mania,
no intoxication, since it's only natural,
a natural endowment common to us all,
which it is our human duty to use well
one-sidedly constructively,
for nothing will backfire more easily,
the consequences of which always are disastrous.
Love indeed, but please be careful to love well,
it's everything or nothing,
and if you can't do it all too well
it's better to do nothing.

I love the line...Please be careful to do it well. So often...we start out 'doing it well' but then over time the 'doing it well' becomes routine and humdrum, to the point of...not doing it well...at all. Thought provoking piece !
