Love 12-26-14

Love will come and
Love will go
That's what they said
And it seems so.

At first you are inseparable
And as the years pass,
You grow distant
And then you are strangers.

It's funny how they say that
Life is a circle.
You come into the world
Dependent & leave just the same.

You came in diapers
You leave in diapers
Came in ignorant
Leave out stupid.

They shield you from pain.
They put you in pain.
They love you to death.
They wish you would die.
