According to Buddha
Love gives joy. We love love because it gives us such intoxicating happiness. So love is not the ultimate; the ultimate is bliss.
i saw it coming like summer rain
incoming ocean, oncoming train
i veered in circles to get off your path
i tried to warn you
that this would be the kiss that counted
the one that mattered
my life before me undone
this would be the kiss that counted
