Love is first a bubbly brook
gurgling
tumbling
rushing to meet her lover
In her sparkling attire she glows
adorned by glints of sunlight
ruffled by wind
Frisky energy takes her far
before feelings
deepen
widen
and she slows
Her heart grows bigger
absorbing the love she receives
she opens her arms
giving generously
On she flows just a little weary
muddied by sorrow and strife
Differences stretch her wide
memories silted up on either side
Yet she cannot stop
even as her lover
turns away from her
Parting causes her to heave and roil
loss overflows to flood the world
In her misery and rage
she leaves a trail of havoc
wrecking everything in her path
Her anger spent
she quietens once again
somber
measured
She know her struggles are past
She has reached the end
She empties herself
in the vast ocean of acceptance
Love falls in love again
