Description
When the world stops spinningAnd the smoke clears
The liquid black is dripping.
Come swimming with me
There is nothing to fear
Let your troubles sink.
This is a hidden place
Yet you have found it
Would you leave so soon?
What is outside that calls you?
Nothing that you cannot float above
Float with me on the black.
Flying now, past the air
We have floated, and we are free.
Free from the constraints of life.
Beautiful smoke makes everything beautiful
The rainbow of blacks collides in my mind
You can see it too.
Why are you leaving? It has all just started.
But you are freezing away.
Going away from the liquid black.
I am dripping, dripping into a triangular puddle
I can do anything
But I can't keep you here.

Hmm, I don't get the connection between this poem and love (as you said in a previous comment).
Despite that I must have missed the point, I like the repetition of the black liquid theme, and especially the line "Beautiful smoke makes everything beautiful" - there's something in that line that draws me to it.

It actually is about love, sorry you don't see the connection.
