Love takes many forms;
Some are splendid and shining.
Some are quietly beautiful like a river ever-running.
It is patience and softness.
It is unbending strength.
It raises the spirit and brings the body to its knees.
Love is a salve on all wounds, even those dealt by love.
It surpasses distance, flies birdlike across miles,
And buries itself deep in the heart.
No pretty Valentine heart this, but sinew and crashing blood
That echoes the unending crashing of love.
A substance that fills the marrow of the bones.
The low note of the horn that calls the soul home.

Doors to life. Doors to death. Doors to strife. Doors to meth. Doors to happiness. Doors to anger. Doors to a fair miss. Doors to a broken hanger. Doors to a good chance. Doors to a bad decision.

Sadness, often felt, rarely spoken - like a friend whose name you do not say when you speak because they know you are talking to them, and everyone else knows who you are talking about.

Tornado and the calm sea. Mean the world to me. Spin around. Then, settle down. A laugh from a frown. Tornado and the clam sea. Mean everything to me. Twist around. Then, calming sounds.
