When love arrives

WHEN LOVE ARRIVES

When love arrives truly, it is overpowering.

Totally unexpected, like a bolt from the blue.

Titilating a million unimaginable emotions in you.

It can only happen when the divine blesses, for you meet so many people in life, but that one special one sweeps you off your feet.

You meet good people, attractive people, successful people, generous people, inspiring people but the spark of true love happens only once in a lifetime, with divine grace.

And when love arrives, it brings with it an ache for fulfilment, for shared moments, longing, intimacy and the inescapable heartache.

And should there be a long parting, love makes one a poet, giving way to the deepest expressions of intimacy.

For when love arrives, it parks itself eternally,

never ever to retreat.
