Love Is a Shotgun

Bang...Bang... Not the gun sounds of hearts engaged in battle not having fun Shells litter the ground love is a hidden treasure packed with ammunition better off not found Love is war relationship gunfight loaded with fools smoking barrels blinded eyesight Love is never done Love bleeds loud Love will run Love will kill Love is a shotgun
