Love Or Lust

I’d like to teach a lesson to you You may laugh and question me My eighteen years have seen enough To hopefully make you see Lust, my friend, is pure heat Some say unbridled passion Sure is pleasing, to say the least But should this be the fashion? It may not hold the bonds we need To eternally stay as one It may be there to just deceive It may be there for fun. A thief of thoughts, controls our head and all of our body parts For if lust exists, as our only tie Then there’s nothing in our hearts. Love, my friend, is the foundation On which we can build our lives In good and bad, we’ll tackle it all And do more than just survive For with love, we share a lust That desire to be as a one For, like the lust, the fire blazes And love, too, brings us fun. It is what matters, it helps us see The beauty within us all. Though, it too hurts, painfully We’ll always answer it’s call. Even if we go and separate Well, love, it will always stay A staying power, it surely has And it will outlast the day. Unlike lust, just through the night, Or whatever the preference be Love prevails and will forever win And lust, well, that’s history.
