"Are you In Love?"

To be in love
is to let love
swallow you whole,
as if a sea
of the masses
doesn’t exist
and cannot save you—
for you are
indeed
drowning.

If love is the ocean,
let your voice
be my safety
net,
and let me
never leave
the waters
that attempt
to drown me
because your
kindness
keeps me
safe
and warm.

This may have been inspired by the poem "Devotion" by Robert Frost. Maybe.
But, it came about when ask.fm asked the question "What does it feel like to be in love?" (or something like that).
