Love Can (Mirrored Etheree)

Love,
It is
Amazing.
It's breathtaking.
It can break your heart.
It can make you complete.
It can fill your days with joy.
It can fill your days with sorrow.
Many people define it differently.
It can be good and bad all rolled in one.

It can be good and bad all rolled in one.
Many people define it differently.
It can fill your days with sorrow.
It can fill your days with joy.
It can make you complete.
It can break your heart.
It's breathtaking.
Amazing.
It is,
Love.
