Love - Is it War?

LOVE - Is it war? In war there is chaos, the air is thick with smoke, you can hardly breath as the thunderous sounds of bombs and gunshots disrupt the once peaceful and beautiful scenery… Certainly it feels like war. All the peace is gone… The mighty have been hit! They cant believe it! They are the supposed to be the masters of the game, how did they fall for the trap… could they be losing this war? Where did they miss it? Oh my heart aches… it aches from these thoughts… too many questions, no answers… if only they saw it coming…

Hmmmmm, a big sigh, how are the mighty fallen! The losses are irreparable… the fighter jets and pilots are lost, the navy grounded, foot soldiers dashing down and crawling to the nearest cover… The Commander gives the order: RETREAT, RETREAT…

They wonder… Why werent the tracers shot and biggles blown to give us an alert, how could those sand models have been so wrong? Who changed the bullets from live to blank amour? What happened to the guards on senturi? All the night navigation and point to point compass marches couldn’t have been so futile? Where did they go wrong…

Tra la la… a General finds the answer… we relaxed, believed too much in our strenght, didn’t put soldiers on senturi, our enemies became our closest friends… they said they don’t have the strenght to even think of attacking us…we thought it was all over… WE RULE… Alas… we were hit before we knew it.

So now the mighty are in hiding… building walls around the city… walls they once thought they will never need, they choose to play the games from now on... and grab the best ally that comes along for a life long romance… They now have a huge gate at the entrance to the city… But suddenly there are loud sounds of chariots and soldiers marching towards the city… CLOSE THE GATES shouts the General… our enemies are here again…

Oh… wait… Maybe they are allies? But they are too scared to take any risks… and want to keep the gates locked… the body is willing… but the heart is weak… the heart draws towards this ally… the gates have to be opened once again… But the General says NO, its too soon… we will be decieved again.

How long will we play games the Commander says, how long will our gates be locked… Open the gates… we have plenty to eat, drink and share with our friends and allies… hoping they wouldn’t once again turn into enemies… hoping it will be for a life time… we have to keep trying… So then… can we say LOVE is WAR.
