Love Always Wins
Surrendering innocence;
lust acquiesces to sin.
And fuels fledgling feelings;
convinced love will always win.
You revel in the pleasures
inflated egos conceive.
Yet, wooed by convincing lies,
you find emotions deceive.
And it hurts to play the dunce;
watching your dreams fall apart.
But it is not the first time
sadness has broken your heart.
Somewhere between frowns and smiles;
there's a place where doubts take shape.
And they can drive you to tears;
seeking a means of escape.
Praying for help from above;
you admit you've made mistakes.
And yet, you still long for love;
then suddenly, hope awakes.
