Love is a brilliant light
with no switch
at least not one available to us
I am, of course speaking of romantic Love here.
It has no switch
but it does have an emotion sensor
soul mates of greater or lesser degree
can sense one another
and hearts ignite.
Falling in love is not a decision
and I believe there is a very good reason for it.
If we had total control and love was a choice
we could watch how quickly humanity would turn it inside out.
It would quickly become (for far too many)
all about self not about loving the other
It would quickly become all about
what am I going to get out of this
instead of all about how you want to
move mountains to put the world at the other's feet
It would become a negotiable contract in which each
was seeking to get the most they can
and give the least
and the moment the other is going to cost more than yield . . .
it will be time for renegotiating or terminating.
In short humanity would turn love into
a hideously selfish, all take and little give, thing
than no longer even resembles itself,
we'd turn an angel into an evil demon.
