Love Tiptoed In
There is no half love; it is or it isn't.
Love is sneaky.
Love is sneaky.
It can crash in with all the sound and thunder of Heavy Metal.
It can tiptoe in, hardly touching the floor.
It can come in a dream state when least expected.
It can come in the touch of a slightly too long handshake.
It can come from afar in a smiling glance.
It can come so unexpectedly that it causes one a shiver of sudden recognition
It can come in inspiration, as if to say “That one!”
Of every sneaky way love can come,
Love has its equal and opposite way it can go.
The joy of its arrival is only matched by the sadness of its departure.
“Once burned, twice cautious”... but love can overcome…and stay.
