Love.

It starts slow
A gradual build up of warm and fuzzy
The overwhelming feeling of joy
Extends over your whole body
Wrapping the ends of your fingers
A need for contact develops
An uncontrollable feeling of lust
You've found your ultimate, your one
And you can't just let go.
The feeling gets stronger
Until it overwhelms your brain
Controlling your thoughts and weaknesses
Exposing you to that one
Vulnerable, yet willing
Love, in its greatest form.

Love how you beautifully explained the stages of falling in love with someone
I especially love the whole feel of the poem
How it just flows nicely and effortlessly
Love...is a hard topic to write about if you haven't felt any
And I felt the love while I was reading this poem
Well done hey, I really loved reading and especially reviewing your lovely piece

This poem is so lovely, a real joy to read. As the title states, this poem expresses such deep love and the overwhelming journey of each feeling and emotion that comes with it. No critic is needed. I love this one 100/100

Great way to describe love, I may have to refer to this poem when I try to explain love to someone who is doubtful of it. The description of this piece and the use of words were great.

The ultimate love is not in the touching, or in the visual dress-down as you both admire each other. It is not in the throaty kisses or in the imagined passion that is just moments away.. No, the ultimate love, is in the knowing that every thing that that I just mentioned to you and more will ever be yours and yours alone because love is consummate for those who share the commitment.

Beautiful words my bathtime :) I still remember how amazing it feels to meet someone, learn who they are and slowly just fall for each other. You expressed that perfectly with your words :)

[bathtime]

Thanks so much! Falling, in my opinion, is the best part of the love experience. I'm glad it reminded you of that. :)

[AaronFreitas]

I agree that is the best part... finding someone to provide that same excitement, same amazing feeling of falling in love after you have fallen is the rarity in keeping that love going. I'm ready to fall again and hopefully keep that :)

It all boils down to the same thing, but depicted so intricately, delicately and unique in each and every one of us, meaning different things to different people, with the same result.
It can be a gift, a curse and sometimes both at the same time.
Very well written. Thank you for sharing this. I really enjoyed it.

Thanks so much :)

I also share the same vie on the concept we humans call 'love'. Love can act like a double edged sword, useful but the chance is big that one will get hurt while using it but in the end, love is a burden that we must carry. The weight of this burden comes in many forms but in the end, the weight can be overwhelming but one can choose to let go of this weight or carry this burden in one's heart forever. I really like this poem, for it is well written and lacks no emotion. This poem shows that you have talent.

Good job :D

[bathtime]

Thanks :). I've always found love to be a fascinating thing. Its so scary and wonderful and intimidating, but gentle, yet strong. I suppose its just a lot of things.

I've always thought I was pretty talented ;)
Thanks again for your words :)

[Nightfeather]

No problem and love is the best thing in the world :D
