Fall in love or die trying

For each joyous moment we live, there's one that'll hurt,
As life ruffles our hair, she'll also show us she can be curt.
Legally banned are hundreds of substances and drugs,
Love is the one drug that spares not even thugs.
It matters not if it is a drop of rain or the unveiling of a scene,
Naked it'll find your soul be you an adult or a teen.
Lips listen not to your mind anymore,
Ominously they'll part into a smile like it isn't a chore.
Venus sent forth her warriors but to steal our heart,
Each face unique and every pair of eyes a piece of art.
Of all the things we could bottle and stopper,
Romance is yet to be solved by any class topper.
Dunes of sand and seas alike we cross,
Identify ourselves with the likes of Ted and Ross.
Each day we live, we die a little on the inside,
To reveal our feelings or let them hide?
Rush the blood does through every single vein,
Youthful, love makes us feel due to the pain
In love we find our masochistic selves,
Nightfall makes even the demons among us, elves.
Gather we do these memories on life's gigantic shelves.
