Have You Met Love

HAVE YOU MET LOVE, DO YOU KNOW HIM?
HOW DOES HE LOOK, IS LOVE HANDSOME?
DOES NOT LOVE LOOK LIKE A VIRUS, GROWING IN HUMANS, TODAY ON THIS ONE, TOMORROW ON THOSE TWO?
TO SOME LOVE IS LIKE A SUNSHINE, RISES UP EVERY MORNING NEXT TO THEM ON THEIR BEDS.
TO SOME, LOVE DOES NOT EXIST, TO SOME HE LIVES IN PEOPLES' HEARTS.

HAVE YOU MET LOVE?
I HEAR HE WAS LOST FROM A YOUNGER AGE, WHILE HE WAS PLAYING SOMEONE PUSHED HIM AND FELL THROUGH A HOLE FROM HEAVENS.
DOES HE HAVE PARENTS?
OR IS HE AN ORPHAN?

HAVE YOU MET LOVE?
HAVE YOU HELD HIM BY THE NECK AND STARRED IN HIS EYES?
SOME HAD DIED BECAUSE OF HIM.
AND 'BY THIS WE HAVE COME TO KNOW LOVE'.

THAT HE GO AROUND CAMPING IN PEOPLES' HEARTS, ON THIS FOR A YEAR, THAT ONE A FEW MONTHS, TO SOME FOR A NIGHT, YET TO SOME FOR A LIFETIME.
CAN LOVE DIE?
IS HE A MURDERER  OR,
IS LOVE ALSO A LOVER?
