love destroy

When your heart has been broken and stepped on,
It leaves you hesitant and reluctant to try.
To give in once more, to open up to emotion,
To dip your toe into the mire into the ocean of desire.
To dip your toe into the ocean of unknown emotion.
If you don’t enter the water, you wont get wet.
There is no danger of being dragged under.
Should you take a chance on love again?
Throw caution to the wind,
Open yourself up to the pain or the pleasure.
Feel the love washing over you,
Immersing yourself.
The waves washing over you,
It may drown you if you do.
If you resist the temptation, you will be safe.
Unharmed in your segregation yet a single moment spent.
In the refreshing waters,
Stood on the ocean floor is worth a lifetime
Spent safely on the shore.
