Love
Love the power in that one word,
Love a word unspoken yet can still be heard,
Love a word that’s used so freely,
Love a word that once found is held within your heart so dearly,
Love a word that could break your heart,
Love a word for which you wish you will never part.
But love can cut deep, it can poison the vein,
it can smile while it’s driving you slowly insane.
It can bruise every dream,
make your soul crawl and plead,
be the hand that you hold
while it makes your heart bleed.
