Love, Lust, and Lost

If one person loves and the other person only lusts, the relationship will never work, nothing 
will ever be good enough. One person will end up hurt and will be the one who was in love, 
the one who was looking for love when they should have been looking up to heaven up 
above. The love will not work if lust is involved, the relationship will not grow, it will not be 
able to evolve. Love and lust equals nothing but a loss, and one broken heart again is what it 
will cost. Looking for love in all the wrong places, fake smiles and tears behind all of these 
men's faces. Wanting all of this pain to end, never loving, never giving my heart away ever 
again.*
