it comes on strong
out of nowhere
...as can love
it goes
out of nowhere
...as can love
flooded with sensations
dizzying moments
equilibrium ~ out of control
swaying
uncertainty
moving
more swaying
to the left
to the right
upside
downside
backward
forward
...as
love
moves
to what degree?
what are the
symptoms of love?
Love:
sweaty palms
racing heart
tummy butterflies
lightheadedness
daydreaming
made useless
loss of appetite
no need for sleep
inability to concentrate
Love = Vertigo
but one can take a prescription for Vertigo
what can one take for Love?
...but more Love!

i can just see this on the shelves, anti-luv or love-sum-more, whichever your heart desires. nah! gimme the real thing any day. with its ups and downs, backwards and forwards, it is a delightful trip indeed.
whichever your heart desires, nice...
nothing beats the real thing, right?
but then again its all about the trip
Yes, all those symptoms. And let's not forget that delicious,yet unsettling overall buzz that makes you feel so alive!
Wonderful!
i wish i haD NEVER TO FEEL THIS AGAIN .
BUT HOW CAN I AVOID ?
i am a passional half italian blood painter .... you described so well my everyday life .
i liked the spaces you was able to give .
at least in your way , i can breath .
ah, what wonderul line today. aint love grand...a medicine i take liberally each day...or try at least. smiles.
VERTIGO: UGH!
LOVE:
AHHHHH!
OHHHHH!
OOOOOH!
OH NOO!
NEVER AGAIN...NEVER!
WELL, MAYBE ONCE MORE!
ONE MORE TIME!
The trouble IS...each time is better.
Calli, it's secretia. this is my first visit. I really enjoyed your poem "Vertigo" and I don't think there is anything we can take for love...
Thanks for writing,
Secretia
oh! Those ARE symptoms not to be healed but by LOVE!
Yes!
How beautifully described!
I love falling in love...luckily so many times in my life...and those still to come!
Why the picture? I am still trying to discern... (?)
Hugs my Sweet friend!
Shadow~ I love those names for new products! lol...and for me I'm with you, I want the real thing!
Winters Reaper~ Welcome and thank you for your visit!
Deb~ Ah, the buzz, I knew I forgot one! ;)
Caio~ We cannot avoid love for it finds us no matter what. And, we are meant to love, it is the way!
Brian~ Hi again! Love is indeed, grand! thanks! smiles back :)
Steve~ Yes, you and I know that UGH, don't we? but Love is all there is...so we do what we have to do...;)
Secretia~ Welcome and thanks for visiting. I'll be by soon to check out your blog.
Dulce~ Falling in love is the absolute best thing in the world. Yeah, me too, quite a few times and more to come! ;0 ...the pic is one my daughter took and since I appeared slightly off kilter, it seemed to fit the title of vertigo...plus I have just had a recent bout of vertigo so I was playing with that and that's it. Hugs to you, Hon!
Thanks all! You're awesome!
Thank YOU!
I love it. I've never thought of Love and Vertigo being similar but it's so true. I am addicted to love but not vertigo, however. Your profile picture is lovely, Calli. xx
I am thinking, this is a very good read, you.I smiled broadly, all the way though!
Well...the tonic is...um, I think you know!
floating as if on a sea of down feathers.....no cares and gentle giggling bursting forth into raucous hilarity to calm into sincere smiling eyes gazing beyond each other's minds.....
nothing compares
to the symptoms
of love.
and it's untreatable.
incurable.
might as well
learn to live with it!
(and report back, please!)
peace & Happy Thanksgiving, Calli!

You certainly have a lovely way with words, and I guess the words love You back. Wonder if writing can be considered as a drug-addiction?
