A Knee-Jerk Reaction

An outpouring of happiness, love surges up from the heart and splashes against the soul; an emotion exclusive to humans. More than a ubiquitous word, love is an overwhelming desire, that burns in your heart and merges with your soul; defying logic and reason. The heart entertains a multitude of inexplicable feelings, beyond all hopes and expectations; love is both ethereal and physical. A heart filled with love forgives what a prideful heart will not; for love's a knee-jerk reaction, that requires no thought. Love can bring excruciating pain; or a euphoric rush; either way, it will not be ignored; nor ever lead you astray.
