This original poem is inspired by the pure force of love, which is something we all struggle to explain to others as to how we are strangely overcome by this explosive energy. Elle Smith's poem 'In a Natural Sense' is a contemporary expression of love in poetry:
In a Natural Sense
What is nature,
if not surreal?
It simply begins
without any force
or even care.
Something magical
minus crazy stunts,
or breathtaking tricks.
You watch growth
reach heights abound.
This internal force
pure magnitude is
just like a nuclear bolt.
It dramatically erupts
like a volcano in flux
spilling molten
pieces everywhere.
All these things
I imagine as your love
disturbing my heart
breathlessly taking
my world apart.
