Love is a burning darkness inside,
A demon; a horse the devil shall ride,
It makes people kill;it makes people hate,
It feels like a dream; an elevated state,
Intoxicated windows and glasses of rose,
Intwining bodies; and sexual prose,
A sickness inside that burns to the core,
An ocean; a lion a distinctual roar,
A passion; an obsession of which we are caged,
A beauty; a disaster a desire that is aged,
Such a beautiful disaster of which we all crave,
A connection; a tie; a link till the grave,
It makes people scream; it makes people cry,
And when you lose it you feel you will die,
An enrapturing birdsong that makes your heart flutter,
A strength and a weakness that melts you like butter,
A view that is blind; but thinks it can see,
A powerful rope that binds you to me,
A darkness consuming all from the world,
The excruciating light into which you are hurled,
And as an end to this sardonic daydream,
Remember that love is not all it seems.

Very good poem, except I think what you are talking about is lust, not love. If you can really see the universe in a grain of sand, you know the difference. Most people on this planet confuse the two, which is the true cause of their suffering. I'm sorry you're feeling bad, sweetie. For myself, I don't expect human love to be perfect anymore -- that is only found in Divine love, and Divine love is found when given. That is the secret to the peace that passes understanding.

actually love is both, you have lustiness in love, you fall for someone and you are addicted to them

but also the concept of love is subjective and subject to interpreter bias, and the above is just my view
