No, He's not In Love

This is about a man who falls in love for the first time.

Chains fly across his pounding heart

What is this thorn, this sword, this ache?

So dark his very soul is torn apart

Resist love, and it will be worse than heartbreak

These matters are so complicated

He sways, he falls, it makes him frustrated

Sleep in eternal bliss, limp in her embrace

Fire burns, but coals sizzle with death

Stay here forever, so close to her face

A curse floats with her sweet breath

Why is it so hard? Why does it burn?

Years and years, but this is what he must learn

Amateur! It is ridiculously hilarious!

He forgot to deflect, to think, to stay cool

Finding the answer, but not being precarious

But in the end, affection may rule

What brings men to the brink of sanity?

This is great, I think it resembles love in general perfectly.
And now I know that man's love feels no different than that of a woman's.
Well done.
I liked the outburst near the end, gave it some flavor. :3

oh you have touched upon it beautifully! yes, men make themselves victims sometimes, youth is no ally to love...where do you find this wisdom? i think you have an old soul....very good write!

I truly appreciate your review. I got my inspiration from a manga called Skip Beat...and someone I had a crush on. (And still do.)
