When In Love...

How does it feel exactly?

Is it just like when you’re drunk?

Or is it just like when you feel the need

To give your heart away?

When in love, think about

The thousand ways someone

Has offered a heart and add one more, so

When someone else goes to do the same,

He would have to think about the thousand and one

Forms to give a heart away

When in love, think about

The owner of every star and how some of these stars

Are occupied, so it is better to look

For a planet. In that way, your heart will find shelter

and your love will be as humongous as that place

When in love, think about studying art

Because you will be tracing the shape of your lover

Over and over again until you feel his or her figure

Until you sculpt the perfect sculpture

When in love, think about a way to say good bye

For love in younger ages consists of experiences only

Not meant to last but to teach you about how to love

How to love with passion and commitment.

Finally, when in love, think about how many words lovers had said

None of them had been put into action

All of them are just rumbling, almost all of them are just words

Put your love into action.

That’s the advice from someone whose love is worth a thousand years.
