Like A Substance - Addictive

Like a substance

        perchance the essence can be sensational

        perchance similar to chocolate, sweet

        perchance the same as food, delicious

        perchance like the flower adorable

        perchance like the medicine, can ease the pain

        perchance with adrenaline, an stimulant

Like a substance

        somewhat like a bile, bitter taste

        somewhat can be sour more than grief

        somewhat poisonous and dangerous

        somewhat makes you weird, or crazy

        somewhat can aggravate more suffering

Despite of its advantage

In spite of its disadvantage

Despite of its effect

In spite of its side effect

Withal we need to experience it

Moreover not once but multiple times

With the trial and error logic

Just to have, meet the right soul mate

To the utmost point of compatibility

As this substance called - love

Feasibly makes life wonderful

Irrespective of the dosage

Credibly addicting

I guess this is not such an unusual comparison between love or the highs of love with the highs hallucinatory drug taking, and your cautionary, side effect, listings are of course appreciated.....

Love in so many ways can be addictive and often times manipulative either in a good or bad way...
finding the right one is a hard battle - you'll need a lot of patience and perseverance, trust and compassion.... taking risk and dive with faith... all that what makes love more challenging than everything else...

great piece mr. Ency....

Congratulate me as your first reviewer, Sir Ency. LOL.

Love is really addictive...that's the ultimate truth. I can't say more about it. You have mentioned what it's like...

I love the last stanza. Keep writing!

Thanks Daisie for your comments, I appreciate it. Di na ata maubos pag compose. Katatapos ko lang ng pag publish with my book. The words came back to me and murmuring to my heart of which already had the heart murmur, but whispering nice one from one word it multiply and multiplied.
