Love is a trampoline bed.

Love is a trampoline bed. It is a bit of taut strong fabric stretched over a steel frame. The steel itself is cold. It is cold enough to make the frame even more uncomfortable.
The trampoline bed is not elastic itself. It uses a lot of coiled springs. It always takes time to coil the springs to the frame and effort to stretch the fabric. Elasticity is provided by the springs that connect the fabric to the frame. There are trampoline artists - more commonly known as lovers. It is now elasticity which enables lovers to jump up and down on the trampoline bed.

It is now elasticity that sends artists into and out of the satisfying possibility of smashing onto the floor at every elevation on the trampoline bed. How high lovers bounce away heightens their commitment and how fast they fall down deepens their attachment.

Without realising it, the soul welcomes the other with similar kindness. Rewarding the kindness of the other soul adds to the construction of a happier self.  The ever increasing cooperation between the two souls makes it much harder to view the consequences of their shared moments, though. Being so, the two souls could easily move forward in the chaos surrounding them with...
