What is Love?
Full of magic
And infinite happiness,
Full of tragic
And infinite sadness.
Love is merely a word
A word that is so absurd
It makes us cry
And squirm and writhe
The most powerful of all emotions
Full of hate and deception,
Full of passion and devotion,
Filling our minds with ridiculous notions
Love makes one think
They’ve finally got it right
Until that love begins to sink
And it ends that final night
The dreary sadness
Pulsing through your veins
Driving you insane
No one can stop the madness
It is a disease
A sickness
An illness
A poison
Gnawing at your very soul
Sucking in every part of you
Until it’s taken full control
The things that love can do
But love is not all bad
It is amazing
And heart racing
It’s what we are all chasing
In this world so dark and gray
This world we live in today
In this world of hate please bring love back
Because in this world,
Love is what we lack
