P a i n

It shouldn't hurt.

Love

Love has no purpose in a world full of no purpose.

Warm embrace. Soft lips, spoke and asked, is it worth it.

Looking for love in a room full of hate.

Searching for real in a room full of fake.

The four letter word is a cliche that you can't shake.

Days of happiness, for it you put your pride at stake.

Love is so many things, I've got to tell you.

But I'm afraid, I don't know how.

Like the best friend you haven't seen in a while.

The way I speak of you, it's truly wild.

But knowing your love, it's your style.

The pain you caused, the Joy you bring.

Love is the only reason why the caged birds sings.

Love is the only reason why they hung us by strings.

A friend to everyone isn't a friend to anything.
