Love Sucks

This is what love is not,
It comes and breaks people's hearts,
You can't be sure about it,
If the feeling is true or not.

Love is suppose to be a good thing,
All it does when it's over... hurts,
It crushes, burns and smashes hearts,
But that's a risk we all take from the start.

A risk, a chance what's the change?,
Love cannot be arranged,
no one knows when it comes and goes,
When it comes... be prepared to let it go.

Basically, we cannot control love, but love controls us. Your thoughts are clearly and so well expressed with honesty and a smooth flow. Michael
