Love Or Love

Love or “Love”
Love is a disease
A plague,
A sickness…
Possessing everything
That does not
Belong to Her
In exchange for no guarantees,
Broken promises, or
Unfulfilled realties…
Love is a game of Blackjack,
Half a chance…
To win or to lose…
The stakes are high…
But we don’t’ care…
We risk it all…
For love…
Or the illusion of it.
