A Truth In Love

Some people in love fall
Others drop out of it
Some people try to fix it
Others don’t bother at all
To some it’s full of action
To others it’s satisfaction
To some it’s imposed fate
To others it’s a soul mate
Will people ever realize
That this is not love at all
And that it’s only the demise
Of what pure they came to call?
People are thoroughly deceived
From the moment they’re conceived
To believe that love is possession
When it’s leaving an impression
On the soul of the beloved mate
To whom we plant some bait
To catch and forever imprison
In a cage completely golden
Though golden it may be
A cage it will always be
Why do we scare love to flee
When we can really set it free?
For in freedom it can grow
And to life it will flow
To empower and strengthen
And to bloom as small children
 Who will grow under its wings
And enjoy what it brings
Let us work for their sake
And spare them our mistake
Give them all the love we should
And fix the love misunderstood
