Finding Love
Love is the greatest emotion of them all
You're entranced by it once you fall
Falling for someone and getting together
Commit to them, always and forever
Love comes in many forms, at first sight
Or maybe on date, dinner outside with stars shining the night
Or you feel your world collapsing
And realize they're the only column standing
Love is bitter, love is sweet
Love is a one of a kind treat
Love is sometimes all that you need
Sometimes you can't find love, no matter the times you plead
Why is the latter taking over these days?
Why can't love appear without any delays?
I tried to find love but i could never find it
Is love fiction? An addiction that we need for life to make sense?
Helplessly, I do not have an answer
This awkward silence is my cancer
I've fallen in love many times before
But none, so far, were what I was looking for
Somedays, it seems much easier to give up and stop whining
Some think fate makes love do the finding
Some think love matures as you grow till you're in the heavens above
Others, like me, just grew tired of finding love
