Love: A new perspective

Maybe it's not her that she's scared of,
And maybe it's not him that she's scared of.
But rather maybe it's that feeling that
so dangerously sneaks up on a
person and buries itself deep in their soul.
It's that four letter word that can just
as easily be the base as the break
of any given relationship.
That word that can scare so many
yet also attracts our deepest thoughts.
We lose our composure, and lose our thought process.
We experience unknown feelings with unknown causes,
Yet we never stop to think that
maybe the cause and the effect
are in fact the same seed sprouted into
a new tree with buds so different yet so same.
We are paralyzed by the idea of what this word can bring,
And confused when in fact every
single person creates a different, but
equally beautiful version of this word.
It's the fingerprint of the feeling world;
Unique and different every single time.
We call this unique fingerprint love.
And this love calls to us in our most
unexpected times
Sometimes bringing us great joy and
confidence,
And others bringing us great fear and
disappointment.
How scary to know that a single
person can make you go weak in the
knees and cause difficulties in your
usually normal flow of breathing; of life.
But oh how comforting it is to know
that they also can solely be your
whole world, making you forget
about the obnoxious world that still
surrounds you, that takes your
breathe away faster that any
magical moment with that single
person whom you so unwilling allow
to consume your life and lead you by the hand.
Therefore, love, is arguably the
greatest fears of all fears to be facing.
It's just a matter of choosing to allow
someone to point a gun right at you,
and undoubtedly expecting them
to not pull the trigger, 
Or putting the gun on yourself and
pulling the trigger, because
you thought the other person was going
to do it anyways.
