Love Equals Insanity

Who would have guessed that having feelings for another person would be so hard?
Humans don’t tend to think so far ahead when they fall for someone
The present is all that matters and when the future begins to loom,
Relationships unravel. Can’t understand why, but serious commitment requires hard work
If it’s worth the drive, that’s up to you to decide.

They both loved each other very much
She didn’t know how to express it
All he did was express his love in various fashions
She responded with a simple smile to illustrate comfort
He responded with gifts for Valentine’s Day

They didn’t know how to handle each other’s love
Caught in a continuous loop of obsession
Perhaps the past that clings on so heavy draws them two closer everyday
The separation created by the past mistakes aren’t so regretful
He forgives her for what she did to him
She forgives him for what he did to her
Their cycles are illustrated by the pain they suffered
Telling her he loves her requires so much more effort than before

Love equals insanity
There is no difference between love and insanity

He was a play boy, enjoying life as it came to him in many opportunities
Smiling through it all, until he saw a piece of the future
When he fell in love with her, he didn’t know how else to react
Letting his music play out a rhythm so melodious that she could only understand
Their story is written in stone
She plays guardian to his heart
Protecting it from the harms of letting go
They are too attached to even admit they want out
Their commitment is so drawn in that people might think that they are insane
But that’s the beautiful part of love

Love equals insanity
There is no difference between love and insanity

He knows he lost his mind for this girl
She knows she lost her mind for this guy
They fit together like a perfect sympathy
Don’t know how else to describe the relationship
But they know, very well, that even after all their troubles,
They still have each other
Even though love has been a constant war for them,
They fought hard to be with each other
Consistently fighting to this day
Both of them don’t want to let go of each other
She can nag him all she wants, but he won’t budge
He’s so deep into it that even if he wanted to let go, he can never let go of what he truly has for her
The passion, the love, the affection that he seeps out so obviously for her
They both have each other’s hearts in chains
One hard tug and their hearts will explode
Resistance is formed with the burden of commitment
They resisted all they can, but she begs to ask him
What would you do without me?

Love equals insanity
There is no difference between love and insanity

Her love is shown through subtle ways
And he totally gets that in ways that society doesn’t
Doesn’t matter to him because what they represent to each other is far greater
There is hope here, never to be lost
If love doesn’t feel like you lost your mind, then you don’t love right
They went insane for each other means that they will love each other for the rest of their lives
Losing a touch of your reality with your love means there is hope for the future
Love equals insanity
We are all insane…
