Even the Mightiest Succumb
How does one describe the beauty of love
Words are just not enough
It's an overpowering and divine emotion
Leaving us overwhelmed with lust
As hard as we try to avoid love's power
There's no escaping it's grip
Ultimately even the mightiest succumb
And into it's clutches they slip
There's only one cure, it's complete surrender
Or you'll always regret that choice
A missed opportunity will haunt you forever
To drink in it's passion and rejoice
Our existence and main reason for living
Is to satisfy this burning desire
To find that someone's meant for them only
Reason for adding fuel to life's fire
