Where Does It Come From?

sitting, pondering
i stumble in thought.
where does it come from
this feeling i have
for the one i call my sweet?
how does it form
in this heart
that is protected by fear?
perhaps this feeling
comes from a source
of unknown origin and strength
and maybe it doesn't penetrate the barier
but rather absorb the fear
through comfort and cheer.
this feeling is love and it is deep and strong
where it came from
alone God I can guess.
my heart has been softened
and my life has been intruded
by this feeling I have
and the questions i ask...
where does it come from
and how does it come?
with the few things i know
i guess I'll just have to wait.

I don't know where it comes from either

isn't it funny how love just pops up so uninvited? i don't even think it knows where it came from.

It's an interesting word, love. Some people (including myself) don't think that it's a good enough word to encompass everything that love is. It's amazing, frightening, heart-breaking, and so much more.

I don't know what Sarah's first comment was about, but I hope you two are doing ok.

If you need to talk, I'm around.

Yeah, I'm not too sure either on what Sarah's first comment was all about. But anyways, that was a beautiful poem Brandon.

Love-pain, elation, spite, joy, distrust, honesty, jealousy, acceptance.......wow, so much can come from love. It seems so contradictory, and it can cause so much pain, but people still seek it out, or it finds you. It can bring the most joy you've ever felt or crush you leaving you to die. It is a tricky thing....hopefully, you encounter the good side most of the time, though you'll end up seeing the dark side a few times....maybe you already have. I believe love is something that makes life interesting, if there is no love life would be dull, yet peaceful. Love is the fire that ignites the powder keg of people's actions, thoughts, and ideas. Everything is done in order to prove, get, or express love. Where it comes from....essentially from the brain, hormones, and your nose(pheramones)...but it seems so magical, does it not? There must be more than the physical aspects....but that, I do not know...

Awesome poem,

Hmm.....everyday, I see friendship and romances...and everyday they surprise me either by their beauty or atrocity....funny how that works....well, all I see is beauty here. Brandon, Sarah, you two are doing very well....getting along swimmingly from what I see.

Good job, and good luck,

Uhh... thank you and... thank you. Unless if I'm just totally missing something we are doing great. I'm most definitely happy and I think I can say the same for Sarah. Correct me if I'm wrong.
