Collided

Love.

It’s something I never wanted and decided I’d never have.

Love nearly killed my mother.

It devastated and destroyed her.

I promised myself I’d never be captured or ensnared like she was.

Love deceives. It isn’t genuine.

It doesn’t last. It’s just poison…a silent killer.

The one taste I got nearly killed me but I was fortunate enough to escape it.

But then I met him, and love didn’t just catch me. I collided with it.
