LOVE_IS_NOT_DRUGS
Love is not drugs, though some may say,
It offers a high in its own special way.
Unlike a substance that fades with time,
Love's embrace is an eternal climb.

No chemical rush, no temporary thrill,
Love's power resides in its tranquil still.
It's a gentle caress, a whispered word,
A bond that's felt, yet never heard.

Where drugs bring chaos, love brings peace,
An anchor in tumult, a steady release.
It doesn't numb pain or cloud the mind,
Instead, it heals wounds, leaving scars behind.

Love is not addictive in the same sense,
It's not a craving that leaves you tense.
Rather, it's a choice, a conscious act,
To give and receive, to stay intact.

So let's not confuse the two, my dear,
For love is pure, while drugs disappear.
In the tapestry of life, let love reign supreme,
For in its embrace, we find our dream.
