It seems there s all different types of candy these days. There s of course the sugary stuff that we have known as candy for years. I like the new trend and decided the first column I write should address those things that are pleasing to the soul. Well, soul candy is any thing we do that makes us feel not necessarily good, but alive. Not all poetry makes us smile, which is especially the case with love poetry.
Love is messy.
If you attempt to love without putting a part of yourself at stake, then there is nothing for you to gain. And, sometimes the cards aren t there. But, love really is all it's cracked up to be, it's one of the finest emotions we experience. It really is worth fighting for, being brave for, risking everything for. Which is why its absence can be so painful.
