A Poem About Love I Wrote in College

Oh yes that’s how I wrote my i’s in college. My kidegarten teacher must be proud of me :D

There is no formula in loving
nor standards in love.
Falling in love has no rationale
and no theory in staying in love.
Whom to love is not written in history
and where to find him is not in any atlas.
You break the norms of the society
and even your own just to meet his standards.
You learn to leave your comfort zone
just to survive in his world.
The greatest way to show love — sacrifice.
The beauty of loving — mystery.
