The Abyss

I fell.
I fell expecting she would catch me before I sunk into the dark hole of my own wishes and beliefs. 
As i fell, 
Thoughts and questions ran through my head. 
What is love?
It's a feeling of deep affection,
But this love is more of a fatal attraction. 
When you love someone more than they will ever love you,
It becomes more like envy and fuel that feeds into your hopes and dreams of being with that certain someone.
The first time I met her was impossible to forget. 
The moment she walked into the room I felt the sparks fly so high it turned into a flame. 
A flame I can only describe as the love I have for her.
The same love we feel when we meet our soulmate. 
Nothing can Express the love I feel for her,
So strong, yet so fatal.
Here we are in the future and my love has grown even stronger. 
What is danger?
Danger is the possibility of harm or injury but it took until now to know that loving her was dangerous.
What is evil?
It's the thought of wickedness or darkness but not once did I feel her grasp my heart and throw it like a child playing with a doll, but hold in gently enough to believe her feelings were real.
What is love?
The love I have for her is dangerous. With this amount of love, I have dug myself into a hole believing that soon it will be my time.
Soon, she will reach down and grab my hand and pull me up to the surface of happy endings. 
But when she reached her hand I was blinded by all of the signs.
I was blinded and began to fall upwards as I slowly began my ascend out of my depression and ambition. 
As I reached the top I seen the truth.
Before I could speak on it,
She pushed me back in...

I agree. Love can be beautiful or it can also be the opposite, you will never know unless you take the risk.

A heartfelt poem rich with emotion.? Love can be a double edged sword and when it cuts, it hurts.
